| Tribunus Laticlavius | Exactly - that is what the judge told him before sentencing him to the guillotine. Your turn, Sevens. Great.

| Tribunus Laticlavius | How about your room-mate ? Let's throw it open for anyone to have ago with a question. We can come back to it later if necessary. OK, edit here. We can carry on. "Mr Pierrepoint, I have always wanted to meet you. But not, of course, under these circumstances". Who was this? Last edited by Del Boy; March 7th, 2008 at 09:23. |

| Tribunus Laticlavius | Nice one, Mr KK. He was upper-class, the son of one of Churchill's ministers, the brother of Julian Amery, who also was a prominent politician, and a great traitor, broadcasting propaganda for the Nazis, just like Lord Haw-Haw. He also volunteered to raise a unit German fighting force from amongst British POW's ; he tried, it never happened. He was very anti-semitic. Eventually he was sentenced to hang, and that was how he greeted executioner Albert Pierrepoint, who said, as it happens, that when it came to noose, Amery was the bravest victim he ever came across. Ironically,he was also of Jewish descent. Over to you. |

| Optio | Cheers, try this one I heard great lamentation, a hermit weeping there bewailing to his God the grief he felt: ‘Oh no, the Pope is just a child. Lord, help your Christendom.’ |

| Tribunus Laticlavius | Wow. Sounds almost biblical, but later. I'm into the picture it conjures up - a voice in the wilderness. But can I recognise it? |
