Meehan Charged With 10 Offences & Two Women Arrested

Apr 5, 2008 Author: Ella | Filed under: Crime

Shannon Matthews’ stepfather Craig Meehan has been remanded in custody until April 11 after appearing in court charged with child porn offences. Two computers were retrieved from the house where Meehan has been residing with Shannon’s’ mother for five years.  While searching the computers in hope of finding Shannon police discovered indecent images of children.

He was charged with 10 offences of possessing around 140 images. Police have also arrested a 25-year-old on suspicion of assisting an offender, while a 49-year old woman was being questioned on suspicion of attempting to pervert the course of justice.

Shannon has reportedly been confused since the abduction and is unable to give details of her ordeal while she was missing. She has now seen her mother for the first time since her disappearance, which was on Wednesday where they spent three and a half hours together, but the location is unknown, both were said to be very happy. Hopefully Shannon will be reunited with her mother on a more permanent basis so she can carry on like any other little girl, without the hassles of the papers and news reports, which is understandably upsetting all whom are involved especially the mother.

Having A Winge

Apr 4, 2008 Author: Ella | Filed under: Winge Of The Week

Do you ever feel unappreciated regardless of what you do to make someone happy, do you often feel pressured into do something you know you have to do but because your busy sorting other things out, you haven’t got round to doing.

I have always been born a homemaker and I have had no work through no fault of my own. So because our house has been left in halfway stages of DIY for four years decided I had to take action and finish jobs that otherwise would never get done for a further four years if not more. I have spent up to ten hours a day either painting ceilings, fitting doors and handles filling holes and gaps or wallpapering for the past week and yet I feel that my actions go unappreciated as he comes home criticizing. The only things I haven’t tackled are the hole in the bedroom ceiling ( the leak in the roof needs fixing first) and connecting the spotlights in the kitchen, I won’t dabble with electricity so that will have to wait till my fella finally gets round to it, talking of kitchens we fitted a kitchen 2 years ago and it still isn’t finished, units need fixing properly, tiling needs to be done, it probably would have been cheaper and quicker in the long run if we had a professional fit it. Despite my busy decorating filled hours I am maintaining my home in the usual manner, laundry, ironing,and general housework and yet my fiancé comes home( while I’m still working hard to sort the home)and demands that i look for a job, I understand that I have to get a job to pay for the home that I am building but it disheartens me when he comes home after eight hours sitting on his arse at the office while I’m here grafting to get our home nice.

Perhaps I’m being a bit tetchy, and having a bad bout of the PMTs but it doesn’t help matters much.

Another Scientific Breakthrough

Apr 3, 2008 Author: Ella | Filed under: Scientific Stuff

Scientists at Newcastle University in the UK has had another scientific breakthrough involving human embryos.

This time it involves animals which is causing a bit of a controversy, Activists are saying it is a waste of healthy humane embryos, which could be more useful to childless couples. It is said that the scientists have taken cells from cows and modified them so that there are no animal genetics as such left in the cells, which in turn are fused with human embryos, apparently the embryos are 99.9% human.

The discovery came when scientist tried to find cures for illnesses such as Alzheimer’s, which I have mentioned once before with scientific experiments.

It gives a total new meaning to ’silly cow’ or even the ‘dogs rollox’

Whatever next.

Shannon’s Stepfather Arrested

Apr 2, 2008 Author: Ella | Filed under: Crime

I was going to have a Wordless Wednesday only(see previous post) but I have just heard the news and couldn’t resist writing a post.

A few weeks ago I wrote a couple of posts about Shannon Matthews who was found at her stepfathers uncles house twenty four days after she went missing. Even though the youngster was found safe she still has not been returned to her mother, at present Social Services are still looking after her.

It has now come to light that her stepfather has been arrested on suspicion of possessing indecent images of children. The 22 year old fishmonger Craig Meehan was arrested this morning after he gave access to several computers to help shed light on Shannons disappearance some weeks ago, where they came across the images of children, none are thought to be of Shannon herself and are not thought to be connected to her abduction.

I have to admit that when she wasn’t returned home to her mother I thought something wasn’t right, why keep the child away from her mother unless there was something wrong, It makes you wonder if the poor girl has told the authorities something that her stepfather may not of wanted her to mention. I may be totally wrong, but it does look a tad suspicious. Lets just say justice will prevail.

27 Dresses

Apr 1, 2008 Author: Ella | Filed under: Film Reviews

An amusing film about a young woman who from a young age loves weddings, so becomes a wedding planner of sorts. It’s your typical tale of  ‘Always A Bridesmaid’. Over the years she has collected 27 dresses all of which she has worn, but longs to wear one of her own. She is madly in love with her boss unbeknown to him, and dreams of someday wearing that special dress for him, but her model sister turns up and puts the dampeners on it and ends up dating the boss, which eventually leads to them getting engaged. During one of the wedding planners wedding bashes she gets knocked out by crazed women trying to catch the brides bouquet where a handsome young man comes to her aid, a reporter who writes regular wedding articles for the paper (her favorite). Eventually they become friends until her sister invites him to write an article for her wedding, but instead of writing about the bride he writes about her and her 27 dresses.

  

Definitely a chick flick, so send them guys out for a beer or upstairs to watch footy, it has some amusing moments with some dodgy dresses, a sweet little love story worth watching, no need for hankies.
