Brilliant, dahlink!

"Are you an accompished fashion model?"

There's a typo in 'student' right under there but the wiki always boggles me.

Something about cautions, which seems to throw people?

It looks really good FB.

That's why I used the word arrested. Can you be cautioned without being arrested?

No, but it's come up a lot that people think the caution nullifies the arrest.

Whatever happened to that guy on the board_whose_name_is_never_mentioned_here who was applying for a GC because he was a champion fish fryer? And there was the other one on the better Florida board who got it for building dolls houses? I didn't want to leave any stone unturned.

I've done my best to nullify idiocy! But I'm sure my efforts will not remove it completely.

Actually if you are cautioned it goes on your police record and does count towards a criminal offence. Whilst it is a minor discretion, it does remain on your record for a minimum 6 years.

No I have never been in trouble with the law.

Thanks for the simplified version.
