I've just got back from a 3 week break in the UK and I have to say I got sooooo sick of the news.... they go on and on about swine flu, the casualties in Afghanistan, Jordan & Peter Andre's split & Michael Jackson and to top it all the weather was absolute s**t!! so glad to get back....

They are checking people coming into Sharm for swine flu....men in white coats with masks (around their necks!) who hand out an extra form to fill in with the same details as the landing card plus on the reverse questions about your health and you're supposed to tick the box if you have any of the symptoms!

Oh poor S4me, I know what you mean though especially about the news!
Just be glad you don't have to live in the UK all year round I really couldn't face it again

The news is definitely depressing, rarely shocking but the following has shocked me, it’s the Moors saga all over again

A teaching assistant who helped her husband secretly film young girls at their West Midlands home has been jailed for two-and-a-half years.

Rosemary Foxall, 49, from Brownhills, was found guilty of 10 charges of making and possessing indecent images.

She prepared baths for the girls, while her husband Martin - who has since killed himself - secretly filmed them using hidden cameras.

Judge Nicholas Webb said Foxall had "fully assisted" her husband.

He said the couple had offered their victims, who cannot be identified, incentives such as toys, discos and swimming pools with water slides to come to their home which the girls found "impossible to resist".

They were then filmed through a spy hole above a bath and by a camera hidden under a pile of clothes in a bedroom.

Sex aids

Foxall was arrested after the videos were found following a fire at their home in July 2008.

Judge Webb, speaking before sentencing at Wolverhampton Crown Court, said pornography and sex aids were also left "lying about" for the children to see.

He said although the secret films were recorded on to VHS tape and had probably not been distributed, the victims could never be sure the footage would not be circulated on the internet in future.

Foxall was also placed on the sex offenders register and banned from working with children.

Det Insp Gordon Roberts, of West Midlands Police, said the force was delighted with the sentence.

"This case involved two respected members of the community who exploited their position to target young girls invited to their home," he said.

He thanked the victims for helping prosecutors and also thanked West Midlands Fire Service for reporting their findings.
