Alfie Lewis, WAKO champion who resides in Liverpool, England.

I read that he was arrested for murder last year, but have not yet
heard what has happened to him. Is he in prison or was he proven not
guilty?

As far as I know he was aquitted. This was on the grounds that the man
he hit, who had been damaging his car ( I think ), was drunk and that
the fatal blow was not from Mr Lewis but from the kerb of the road as
the man fell to the ground

>the man fell to the ground ^^^^

In the US we spell this word "C-U-R-B" is this the way they really spell
this in the UK? Or is this the name of those large sloth like creatures
with the big nasty teeth that live in London's storm sewers and are often
seen on the grounds of Buckingham Palace?

PS Do I really need a smiley face?

No... you don't need the smiley... we spell it curb in the UK too!

I write:

This sort of disscussion is probably best left off this world read
news group because:

1. It is totally irrelevant to the sphere of Martial Arts ( and Alfie Lewis ).

2. The content of this discussion is both factually wrong and assumptive.

The word kerb is used in England to describe the concrete edging at the roadside.
The word curb is used for the same meaning in Canada and the good ole US of A.

The word curb in England - the home of the English language {flame suit on} is used
to mean restrain or control - "curbing drug abuse"

J.Frost has mislaid the gift of true English by living away from Britain too long.
-Lucky Barsteward.

Let's have no more such discussion in this group.

Regards
Neil.
