  • Hard News: Veitch,

    By "c***" I presume you mean "c**k", right?

    to continue to try and prosecute this matter via PR and media

    And I quote from this story:

    Meanwhile, Veitch was asked about speculation that his legal team had "some dirt on her" that led to the plea bargain.

    Veitch replied: "I did some investigating ... I went and I dug and I went through records and I went through discovery and do you know what? I had a good time and I found stuff. So you are talking about dirt, (I am talking about) evidence."

    Both parties have criticised media coverage of their case and Veitch yesterday threatened to sue some media.

  • Hard News: Veitch,

    So I quote in good faith from this story:

    Despite the guilty plea, National Network of Stopping Violence Services national manager Brian Gardner told NZPA there were aspects to Veitch's behaviour since the sentencing that suggested he did not fully accept responsibility for his actions.

    Like many men he had treated for violence problems, Veitch's reaction appeared to be mixed, Mr Gardner said.

    "Part of them will front up and take responsibility for the behaviour and then there's another bit of them that sort of minimises it or puts it outside of themselves," Mr Gardner said.

    "They want to keep saying to people `I'm a good guy, I'm a good guy', and actually that's not the issue, about whether you're a good guy or not, the question is what are you going to do to make sure it doesn't happen again."

    Different "O", Mrs Skin.

    people who use it and its effect on people around them

    If that's true, it's disgusting - but it is nothing more than speculation right now. Although we were guided in our earlier discussions about this by assessments of character and probability, I respect the current vulnerability of this forum as Russell has described it.

    What on earth were you doing in there?

    Scandal! Now we're talking..

    For that, I suspect Russell would be tempted to schedule a special gathering in your rohe.

    My colleagues in the hot-buttered community report that they are unoffended by any of the terms bandied about so far.

    It should however be noted that I have made up for my sad non-attendance last night by following our host's lead and sampling te Talisker o Point Chev, so my reasoning is not to be relied upon.

  • Hard News: Veitch,

    Well you have to learn how to be an honourable man from somewhere, I guess.

    "Kveitch" is good.

    I encourage as much use of the word "veitching" as possible.
