>> A body has been found in a suitcase in the Grand Union canal in Little Venice. According to the police it was still 'too soon' to say how long the body had been there. Ye gods, who'd fancy being a police pathologist? Little Venice is a nice area and pretty. But there's something a bit sinister about it, like Venice proper. A friend of ours used to live there, but she doesn't any more. Perhaps her ex still does. Reply to this message | Report message

Some Police statements amaze me, unless it is another unfortunate event like the guy in a holdall :-( www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-32694113 " Police do not know how long the body had been there, but they are treating the death as suspicious." Reply to this message | Report message

How a body decomposes in cold water and enclosed in a container isn't a matter of 'simple arithmetic'. Will take days or weeks of tests before anything is remotely conclusive.

>> Three men arrested Murdering villains, or grieving relations who couldn't afford a proper funeral? No doubt we will be told in the fulness of time. Jolly glad I don't have to smell the soup. Reply to this message | Report message
