Tosh,
Are you still being investigated by the SIB over that 'matter' you posted about a few weeks/months ago?
Thanks,
Richard.

No, Richard. I wasn't being investigated, it was a friend of mine who stole the £42000.
I was interviewed because I'd covered his job over two, two week periods during the course of a year. However, I'd not had any authority to sign cheques from 'his' account; and that was how the fraud was commited; via cheques, so there was no action towards myself.
An MOD policeman came to visit, interviewed me; said he'd type up a statement and e-mail it to me; but I never heard from him again. I think their lack of interest in me was because I pointed out a number of failings within the unit's administration; such as the lack of surprise cash and bank checks; and whilst I was audited on a regular basis; Billy (the offender) wasn't as it was thought my job (dealing with tax-payers funds) was more important than Billy's job (he dealt purely with Battalion money (Mess bills, fruit machines, money from the various bars on camp etc)).
When last I spoke to Billy (the offender) a few months back; he said the CPS thought there was enough evidence to prosecute him and he was to go to court at the begining of August (the 5th) I think; and I've had no contact with him since.
Had I took £42000 I'd have a lovely thermo-pure WFP system and a nice shiny new van.
Instead I've struggled to pay for a backpack and drive round in an old Rover which needs replacing.

Richard,
You post sounds really bad.
Here's the original post which was done very much tongue in cheek:
