    Could only be in Britain

    It happened today.
    I fell foul of one of those ridiculous laws as i walked through the millgate in Bury clutching my chip muffin i commited the most heinous of crimes. dare i say i dropped a chip. Not a bag of potatoes, not even half a potato, one measly morsel of fried potato not even enough to qualify as a chip (one of those shrapnel ones that cut your throat as they go down).

    No more than 10seconds after my act of treason to which i was oblivious had happened i was pounced on by some fat bloke with an obviously inflated ego and waistline. "Excuse me son we dont appreiciate liitering in this town".
    My response perhaps stupidly was "We dont appreiciate harrassment in this town.

    The sad bloke had evidence on me he had taken a picture of said potato snack and he even put it into a little bag (sad i know). At which point a great moment of glee shone over his fat little excited face as he issued me with an on the spot fine for £30 realising that he may get a bit of commision for his handiwork. I just tried to be rational while my mates were in a fit of laughter and asked could i perhaps just put the chip in the bin. Not a chance, youve commited an offence.

    Only in Britain could this happen. Ive got 28 days to pay or go to court.
    Sad gits

    I don't know what's more shocking Turbo, the fella's heavy handed response to your 'crime' or the fact you dropped the chip instead of necking it!

    It just dropped out of a crowded chip muffin i think unless it was planted in some sort of conspiracy

    There is no excuse for such thoughtless waste of chips/chip - you should also be banned from every chippy in the land if you can be so free and easy with your chips!

    Zero tolerance, that's the way forward, I'm all for it. Make an example of you youngsters .
    Don't roll with a pig in poo. You get covered in poo and the pig likes it.
