I have to get back to revision but:

mans name was Mark Saunders ,32
was caused by an argument with his wife Elizabeth Clarke, 40 *
left a note on a shoe box “I love my wife dearly xxx.”
argument caused here to run out of the house at 4:00pm *
both family lawyers
couple married in August 2006 but separated a few months ago. *
shotgun was legal *
both oxford graduates (he studied law at Christ Church College, Oxford. / she went to Lady Margaret Hall, Oxford.) id speculate they met there, but no citation

im getting lazy now these are just ripped from the times article so need rewording

argument because of his 'increasingly drunken and erratic behaviour, that she could no longer love him or live with him.'
he was a former trooper in the Honourable Artillery Company *
30 armed officers surrounded the building. In the hours that followed, nine of those officers returned fire at Mr Saunders.
The Independent Police Complaints Commission has begun an investigation into the shooting.

It's normally a bad idea to use the ready tag, tends to get stuff lost. If you think it's ready, why not read i again, and then publish it. Nyarlathotep - (talk) 10:57, 8 May 2008 (UTC)Reply

I think that's now ready to go. If someone else could check it and switch to develop/publish as needed... --JamesHarrison - (talk) 14:39, 8 May 2008 (UTC)Reply

London, England

[edit]

Surely this is taking the "let's put country name after city like Americans do with states" thing too far? I would have thought any English speaker knew London was in England? I've certainly never seen "New York, United States" in an article name before. Harris Morgan - (talk) 19:30, 8 May 2008 (UTC).Reply
