“smells a bit milky to me....”

“Fair, up until now I haven't commented on this story and I don't intend to”

“Fair - or is that a euphemism for 'fence-sitting liberal'.
I can't speak for the other people you mentioned, however I feel I should make my position clear. If this was a genuine incident then of course all right-minded individuals would have nothing but absolute sympathy for this poor lady to have gone through such an ordeal. However, by the time I got around to post my (flippant) remark, so many sympathetic comments had been made already that I would have just been repeating that which had already been said.
It was a joke, not meant maliciously, so lighten up.

I actually live just around the corner from where this alleged incident took place and I find it very difficult to accept that things happened as reported. Something just doesn't ring true about all this.

As for having nothing better to do than sitting here 'tapping away at every story going' .....you are the one that posted at 8.52 this morning, while the rest of us were doing household chores, the weekly shop, walking the dog or 101 other things that people do on a Saturday morning.
A bit eager to get online yourself sometimes?”

“wat sad bunch of people how wud u like 16 pints of milk poured dwn u after ur cumin home from work or summin this is bollocks u cnt even walk the streets now”

“Where can you get four pint bottles of fresh milk at that time of night? It can only be the Spar shop in North Hill. No doubt the plods already have high quality CCTV footage of the offenders and at this moment are patrolling the streets of green bank looking out for them. perhaps the herald with its cozy hook up with the place could post the milk purchase on this site before they attack again tonight?”

“You bunch of sad people. Wonder how you would like it if someone did that to you. Get a life!! and in particular - NEV, MISS A, ANGELA, MOLLY & ROB ROY your constant commenting proves beyond doubt you have no life and you sit there tapping away at EVERY story going with NO useful comments at all. BUNCH OF SADO's”

“surely some of these scum had milk on their clothes. mothers, wives, partners if you suspect someone is involved you should report it. this incident is not funny but a crime. hope all you mikey takers are never the victims of crimes.”

“was it blue tits.”

“Herald,I think its time to pull the plug on this story's comments.Not funny anymore,no one really knows the full circumstances but whatever they are there could be a very traumertised lady out there,enough!!”

“What a sense of humour we have in this area, and I hope we keep it up to offset the awful weather I have come back to after three months away.
it does sound a bit tongue in cheek, if not bless her and take the warning to be safe me luver x”
