    Was at Birminghams Central Library before Christmas to pick up some books I'd reserved there.

    The mrs was with me & looking at some **** she's interested in & I headed over to the political section to see if there was anything decent there. There was some IRA book which caught my attention, can't recall the name but read the back & seemed quite decent.

    Opened it up to read a few lines & it seemed to be written ok, flicked through to find an interesting chapter to see how bias the book may be & noticed that certain words were highlighted by a yellow marker pen & there was a business card/calling card inside which was really sinister looking.

    It had a logo which was of binoculars & a message saying "Found You! Call me when you get this"

    I put it down to a prank & chucked it to the floor...........but later I thought - what if I'd stumbled on something? Imagine it was some secret service ****!!!

    Anybody ever found such a card in a book at the library or elsewhere?

    The highlighted words didn't make any sense when reading them in order, it could have been code. It wasn't like someone was doing coursework & highlighting phrases, quotes or anything it was just random words!!!

    The card was quite amateur which is why I dismissed it as sombody having a laugh....but maybe that was the plan in case an inncoent like me picked it up?

    So next to the 'Political Section' must be the 'Murdering Terrorist Scum Section', easy to get them mixed up I suppose<ok>

    I already had a balaclava, sunglasses & stonewash jeans - got a camaflage jacket for £10 from the market, DM boots for £5 from charity shop & a beret for £2 from a ****ty shop.

    Stuck on a rebel tshirt I've had for ages & a few badges for effect & thought I was odds on for winning, despite not taking a plastic gun with me!!!

    Then my auntie turns up as Vicky Pollard <laugh>

    A guy I know was in the Paratroopers. He came to my fancy dress party dressed as a rag head. I told him he looked pretty authentic. He said that he ****ing should be as it was taken off one of them in afganistan. he then showed me the blood stain still on it <yikes>
