As You Do...

Adrian Strong, prosecuting, said it struck the left elbow of Henderson, who responded by producing the axe from his trousers.
*boggle*
Claire Anderson, for Henderson, said he wanted to apologise to the staff and customers for the fear he caused them.
She said Henderson, of The Brooms, in Ouston, near Chester-le-Street, who had taken valium that day, is now, “extremely remorseful”, aware of the potential consequences of his actions.
I thought valium worked rather differently, but hey, you learn something new every day!

Crikey, Jaded. Even in the remote backwaters of Yorkshire, the production of 18 inch tool from the trousers trashes the most primitive table protocol.

Tranqs effect people in different ways. I was prescribed "Diazapam" about 10 years ago. I stopped taking them after about a week, as I was wanting to fight everybody..

Sedatives can have a psychotic effect/cause aggression, it's a well known problem down on the Psych-wards.

Hell I can't even smoke weed these days without wanting to go and kill someone. Chill? Only in the sense of the morgue's freezer.

Is that an axe in your trousers or are you just pleased to see me?

I suspect this chap wasn't confining himself to just valium...

"Chill? Only in the sense of the morgue's freezer."

Heh!
