God, grant me the serenity to accept the things I cannot change,
Courage to change the things I can,
And wisdom to know the difference.

Interesting film - thanks
Thanks Rheghead, great seeing that, I was born in '59, seems like another world entirely! Does anyone know what boat was in the harbour?
John Waters was the young Thurso loon who was dragged into an alley and beaten unconscious by two Thurso cops in 1959. It caused a national scandal and I believe led to social and legal changes. Thurso police became infamous for a time.
For the account of the case in the government's journal Hansard see http://hansard.millbanksystems.com/c...03/john-waters
There used to be an Orger with significant knowledge of the events of 1959. Was it gleeber or the late gleber2?
