Justice?

We have a TV in our office, most of the time it's tuned into Sky news or the BBC, the sound is normally off and surprisingly it blends into the background and I don't notice it much. Every now and again though a particular image comes onto the screen that grabs everyone's attention, that just happened.

Picture the scene, a typical British city street, its night-time probably Friday or Saturday, a jerky CCTV image reveals lots young looking people wandering between pubs and clubs; spiky haired boys in trainers, girls in short skirts and high heals. Sadly and unsurprisingly, a fight breaks out, two "likely" looking lads start to pick on and square up to a couple of girls (yes you read that correctly), the fight lasts 2 seconds, bang and both lads are spark out on the pavement, the girls adjust their dresses, pick up their hand bags and nonchalantly walk away.

WTF?

A quick Google provided the full answer, it turns out that unbeknownst to the yobs, the two girls in question turned out to be professional cage fighters in drag, on their way to a stag party..

You can see the whole ugly, and yet strangely satisfying episode here on youtube, this must be what "justice" feels like :)

A TV in your office eh? Near your desk or out in the reception area?

E, I put one up in our little kitchen area along with our XBox (another vital piece of equipment!) the kitchen has glass walls so everyone can see it; of course I can see everything from my penthouse suite as I recline in a huge leather chair stroking a white cat ;)

(our office isn't that big)
