An especially useful technique if they're trying to burn you alive I quite fancy the Crow-esque 'lean back and turn' dodge, unexpectedly plucking the weapon out of the air and returning it LOL, yeah I realised that after! I was thinking more of dropping below the path of the blade, rolling to the side while in one swift movement removing the revolver from my holster and sticking a cap right between the eyes of my baby-faced assailant! Hmm, yeah that sounds good too!

Not a bad technique at all But then, if the assassin were halfway decent, they wouldn't attack from the front anyway, so Cav's boy is gonna have to get out of bed very early to catch me

Oh no, I assumed from the description that I'd be grabbed from behind and my throat slit... the flash of steel being as his arm came round from behind! Therefore to drop and roll diagonally would have to be the way. Must buy a place with a wider hall before Cav's progeny comes of age...!

If the assassin knew how to use a knife, you shouldn't see the blade anyway, and they should hold it in such a fashion that were you to roll away, you'd just run your throat down it anyway. But then knives are far from the most effective way nowadays anyway - I'd go for a poison composed of tetrodotoxin, hyaluronidase, tyramine, histamine, acetylcholine and dopamine, which is incurable (no known antidote for tetrodotoxin) and should kill by paralysis asphyxiation leading to cardiac arrest in about four minutes, administered by a simple needle prick. Busy streets of London, accidentally bump into someone... who'd be any the wiser?

Dearie me, I think you've been watching too many movies! Isn't it amazing though, millions of years of evolution and we're still trying to work out how to commit the perfect crime?! Isn't humanity wonderful?!

Nothing to do with films there; that poison's based on the venom of the Blue Ringed Octopus - one of my aims in life is to know something about everything, and everything about something. A little base knowledge of poisons comes in handy from time to time, as you can see I do actually know how, at least from a legal standpoint, you can commit the perfect murder. There is one set of circumstances - and as far as I'm aware, only that one - where you're completely unbound by any country's laws or any international conventions. And saying, "Do it in international waters" isn't enough on its own, because you can still be tried by the country the ship/plane left or arrives at

Very interesting. Well, not *very* as I'm not psychotic or sociopathic enough to want to murder anyone... but *somewhat* interesting. I take it you don't believe in "God's law" either of course (whichever God or gods that might be?!) Lunch brb

I take it you don't believe in "God's law" either of course (whichever God or gods that might be?!) Lunch brb Interesting as a curiosity, certainly. The trick is to go out on a boat into international water, and get them to enter the water itself voluntarily - you could suggest dropping anchor and going for a swim, for instance, but you can't forcefully put them in the water, because then the assault starts on the ship, so you can still be tried under the laws of the departure/destination countries. Once you're both in the water, you're completely free of all laws - that's when you can commit the murder. So, fancy a boat trip this weekend? ;D

Better start farming those Octopi then ;D That said, if I wanted to bump off everyone in London, I'd do it using cyanide gas - there's a particular rock that can be found leftover in certain quarries that, when you pour hydrochloric acid on them, gives off cyanide. One of said quarries is in Bedfordshire
