If you could turn back time

[Stephen Thomas]

Well, if I were Scots Abberline would pay for the camera too, and the film.

Did you hear about the Scotsman who found a a packet of corn plasters and went out and bought a pair of tight shoes?

[Robert]

Ay, but throw in a fried Mars Bar.

Hello Robert. One poond then?

Cheers.

[Robert]

Come man, come, will ye not settle for a bottle of malt and a copy of Lulu's Greatest Hits?

the bomb

Hello Robert. I hadn't thought of that.

(And if there's a bomb, I'll tell ye where it is for a thousand poonds.)

Cheers.

Hi Lynn

Well, if I were Scots Abberline would pay for the camera too, and the film.

[lynn cates]

Waiter, cheque please. He pays.

Hello Robert.

"And last, and most importantly:
Abberline paying the bill"

You're Scots too, then? (heh-heh)

Cheers.

Actually, I wouldn't mind eating with Abberline, for that way I could photograph him :

Abberline eating sausages
Abberline getting gravy down his shirt
Abberline smoking cigar
And last, and most importantly :
Abberline paying the bill

Then I'd post all the pictures here.

If I could have dinner with anyone I would like to sit down and eat with Frederick Abberline. So little is known about him, and it would be so intersting to get his take on the case.

Hi RedB, save your dinner for someone else, his take on the case is widely exposed in his 1903 interviews. It's not worth a fish & chips, is it ?

back in time

Hello Maria. I have recently found out that we may get to talk with Wess--or at least Rombro. The next Arbeter Fraint (Oct 5) is supposed to contain an account of the WCM up to that point. Hope they were not using hyperbole.

Cheers.

Who I'd like to know...

If I could have dinner with anyone I would like to sit down and eat with Frederick Abberline. So little is known about him, and it would be so intersting to get his take on the case. I doubt I could get all my questions for him in in just one meal though, but it still would be very interesting for me.

[mariab]

I'd have liked to talk to inspector Abberline, to William Wess, and to some of Le Grand's minions. Separately, of course.

[Adam Went]

Wouldn't mind having a yarn with Schwartz's "Pipeman" to be honest - to use a policing term, to see if he could "assist with my enquiries".

And George Sims as well, strangely enough.

Cheers,
Adam.

Time machine!

What about finding out who Jack was, then going back even further in time, snatching him away as a baby and giving him to loving and caring foster parents?

Okay, if it works and he grows up to be a lovable and respectable fellow, the world would lack an interesting mystery.

[FrancoLoco]

Dinner with Ostrog - nah, then you'd have to make sure all the silverware was still there after he leaves.

As for the time machine part of this thread - I've always said that I'd love to be standing in front of 13 Miller's Court to see who comes out. But then again, I'd also love to see exactly what happened on Berner Street.

If it's a choice between the two, I think I'd go for Berner Street.
