'The husband of nurse Rui Li, who was found dead in a car in Bournemouth, has been charged with her murder, Dorset Police have said.
Pierre Legris is due before Bournemouth Magistrates' Court on Monday.
The 60-year-old, from Bournemouth, was detained after the body of Ms Li, was found inside a silver Fiat Punto, in Verwood Crescent, on Friday night.
Ms Li had not been seen for more than a week.
She had worked at Poole Hospital since 2009 and first came to the UK from China about 10 years ago.'
He body was discovered in the boot of a car some miles from the family home. Apparently been there since she went missing.
Maybe the full story will be revealed when the case comes to court.

I'm sorry, Willy, but I don't understand. What is a boot on a car?
-
Irishguy. If a hood is a bonnet then the trunk is the boot. You know how the British are... They can't say anything right.

Wow... now I'm more confused than ever? Do Brits dress their cars up in bonnets and boots? Strange folk... no wonder we wanted to cross the ocean and get away from them.

C'mon guys. You all know the type of people who emigrated to the USA!
Could not spell and could not tell the left side of the road from the right. Ha Ha

I don't know Willy. Just seems there are some folk that do not want to move forward with the future. After all most of the world drives on the right (correct) side of the road. Centrifical for and all you know. Also consider the rotation of the world. If we drove on the left side we would slow the world down quite possible get the earth to rotate off of its axis. Then where would we be? Yes Yes I know. Jolly old England where it pisses outside and people smoke fags. (I just have a hard time with the images I get in my head over that one.)
-
Sorry Shaun, it pisses down outside, or it rains cats and dogs. When we are drunk, we get pissed, but when we are angry, we get pissed off.
Here endeth the lesson.
I prefer driving on the left, because I can use my stronger arm (right) to hold the steering wheel. And soon I will be driving in China, where it doesn't really matter which side of the road you drive! ;)
-
Hahaha... Yes Phillip I learned British slang from a bloke who was almost always pissed.
-
Better to be pissed off than pissed on.

Thank you good to be back.. gonna have to learn how to navigate this place all over again.. I thought I was sending a reply to the group earlier, but seems I sent a PM instead.. looked for my original message, seems to have disappeared into the o zone.. hmmmm.
-
You replied to a pm so it will be in your sent message folder.
-
Sent message folder? Where is that? Every time I send a message it disappears into the either never to be seen again.

Gerry click on the my messages button, when the message page opens click on messages. This will give you 3 options, new message, inbox, and sent messages, click on sent messages and all the messages you have sent should be there.
-
I think that only works if you click on 'Save a copy in my outbox'!
I never do and have no messages saved on the system.

The box is normally checked by default. It should be saving copies unless you have changed your preferences

Maybe 5 years ago I may have done that in my profile but do not remember but I still I prefer it my way. Keeps thing from cluttering the place up.
