Scoopyboy understands that decapitation was not the cause of death. The person that put the head into a plastic bag and tied a knot in it caused the death - suffocation.

Mummified...?

I thought that was when they radge Egyptian dudes got cloths and that, and wrapped them round the body with all radge oils and that..

I'm guessing the killer may be from North Africa...

I think it might belong to me, and I left it after getting drunk in the Starbank. My wife was complaining that I "never give her head" so I thought it would make a pleasant Christmas surprise.

How big was the ****ing IKEA bag that they took a couple of days to notice there was more than a heid in it??!!:confused:

Toaods

That's the trouble with anything you get from IKEA - takes you ages to put it all together, and three days later bit's are falling off it all over the place.

have they confirmed it was screwed or not?

04-01-2009, 09:46 PM

Right, There is no need in all these jokes, try and remember there has been someone lost their life over this and you are all sitting here cracking jokes.

Keep it in check guys.

Sorry, I did'nt want to lose my head over this:wink:

Rightly or wrongly its human nature to find humour in even the most macabre circumstances.

Still lets remember a lady lost her life here.

A head being found in a bag is thankfully not an everyday occurence in Edinburgh nor anywhere else for that matter. It's the weirdness of the situation that appeals to a certain sense of humour. Nobody is deriding the victim or laughing at the act of murder. There have been a few head puns - that's all.

Some people find it really insensitive but equally, some folk find humour in it.

I think it's a bit unreasonable on both sides of the argument to expect that someone should or shouldn't find something amusing.

I've found some of the comments quite humerus, but it doesn't mean that I can't see the tragedy and horror in this kind of thing.

It's like the Shannon Matthews debate on the private thread. Personally, I found the mock-up plate amusing, but doesn't mean that I don't feel sorry for Shannon or that I don't recognise the awful way in which she's been treated.

Horses for courses, diff'rent strokes for different folks.

Aint it more than a bit ironic that someone has been subject to a most heinous and cruel death and there are humerous comments being banded around...yet have a pop at a black footballer and all hell breaks loose?

Had the police at my door today about it.

Routine door to door enquiries. Apparently once they have started enquiries on a street they have to finish them.

The search has been extended to Granton which is where i believe Cameron is from.

Lidl and Iceland at Granton were closed yesterday. Police were searching the car park. A few streets were closed, and there were police all over the place.

Am sure they found a hand down at the Iceland in Granton and apperantly their are other body parts scattered around the north side of the city.
