From the article:
One neighbour of Mr Bird described him as a quiet man who kept "himself to himself" and had not talked to his neighbours despite living there for several years
I know this is scary and dangerous and all that, but I still have to (mis)quote St. George (Carlin)...
"...Someone always says, 'He was always very quiet.' And then someone inevitably responds with 'It's the quiet ones ya gotta watch.' This, to me, is a very dangerous notion. I bet while you're watching a quiet one, a noisy one will #%(&#ing kill you! Say you're in a bar somewhere, and there's a quiet guy sitting in the corner, not bothering anyone. Then some other guy jumps up on the counter with a shotgun and yells, 'I'll kill the next #(%*&@# that walks in here!!!'...... Who ya gonna watch?"
Anyway... Hope the cops nab this guy nice and quick. EDIT: Oh, just saw Pete's post... The guy's dead... And there was much rejoicing... yay.

Have you ever seen Natural Born Killers (1994)[^]? That's an exaggerated example of a noisy one (Well, two) that'll @&*)%ing kill you :)

Blimey - never realised that they were emptied for the winter. Those tourists must have to buy a lot of beer to achieve that ... :-D Rich

Yeah, it's to prevent burst banks when they freeze...
Did you know: That by counting the rings on a tree trunk, you can tell how many other trees it has slept with.

Just so everyone knows, it wasn't me doing the shooting... this time.
