Mangled ... remains of Simpson’s 4x4 after Wright was finished with it
Powerful ... 13-ton digger
Wright, 30, turned Anthony Simpson’s Toyota Land Cruiser into a heap of metal.
He went berserk after discovering risque text messages from childhood friend Simpson, 22, on his partner Linda’s mobile.
Revenge ... Martyn Wright
Yesterday he was given a conditional discharge after admitting criminal damage, but said: “I’ve no regrets about it – he deserved it.”
District Judge Liz Harte told him at Chesterfield Magistrates Court, Derbys: “I have listened carefully to the circumstances in which this offence was committed.”
Wright, of Hartington – who is now back with Linda – said: “I’ve known Simpson for 15 years. This is something you just don’t do to your mates.”
In the Brit press, there are no husbands and wives ... only “partners”.
You do know that you’re just tempting someone to post a pic of Helen Thomas, don’t you?
*snurgle*
I mean, wasn’t she half of the equation?
She was indeed, but he took her back, after a FIVE MONTH affair with his childhood friend! From the linked Daily Mail article:
The defendant is now back together with his girlfriend, the mother of his children.
Shaking a finger [naughty boy!] and laughing...
Not married? Maybe. Depends on the people involved. Some are “married” regardless of whether or not the government has record of it. Others can have a huge ceremony, record it at the local Church and with the government and still be only living together temporarily.
Clearly an accident. Officer.

Gabz wonders why she was pinged about a 14 ton emotional unloader.
Ti thinks it is a great idea.
Sionnsar wonder whether the 14 ton emotional unloader was ANSI or metric.
EODGuy has a better idea about unloading emotions. But wonders whether is is the green wire or the red wire.
I took a sledge hammer and axe to my old Rambler in high schoole. Also theraputic.
In the end I had to shift from second to third gears by slipping a bic pen through a shifter hole in the floorboard and sliding the top cover off the tranny, insert the end of the pen into the shifter ring and slide the gear on over.
Ran on four of six cylinders. To be frank though, I only drove it that way for a couple of days, the last one to the junk yard where I got $25 for the car!!
I used a front end loader to mash mine.
Doesn’t some lady sing a country/western song about doing this to her cheating husbands truck?
