    No, I think you've mis interpreted Mrkringles bad English.

    Because he and wifey are theives they have been locked up and questioned for 6 hours and released on bail until 29/1/10, at which point the magistrate will hopefully pass sentence for shoplifting, enhanced for being such muppets.

    Plus having to call in a chav translator delayed the CPS....


    Innit.....

    whats the 'circular magnet' you 'found'? not saying i dont believe you but arent these things used for the removal of security tags? covering your behind perhaps? you so happen to find a circular magnet and hve in your pocket?

    pull the other one, it plays jingle bells.

    I really must object to your use of the word "muppets". The Muppets are fictional characters with no sense of reality and invented just to provide the population with a good laugh!

    On second thoughts, hang on, you are dead right with your use of the word.

    Why is it that someone in the wrong (OP - blatantly) they always try to make themselves out to be 'in the right'?

    The magnetic device - commonly used by theives, it will be seen as going equipped, why take it to Tesco anyway

    Trying to get in your pocket/trying to get someone else to get the inhaler - how do Tesco know that you did not have a concealed weapon or dangerous substance in your pocket

    Staying away from your partner due to embarrassment of insufficient funds - what a scumbag, surely its joint funds and why should she have to take the humilation STOP SMOKING AND PROVIDE FOR YOUR FAMILY!

    You were in the wrong, no one should have any sympathy for you!

    i stopped smoking when it became apparrent that we were struggling as a family and ive done it after 1 week of patches and a week or two of the inhillator. its not bothered me.

    perhaps the op could do this. if i can anyone can.

  • Why couldn't the store staff have been making a citizen's arrest? They're perfectly entitled to do that!

    On a more serious note, what happened to your children while you were locked up for 6 hours? Have they now been taken into care? I assume that some form of emergency care package was put in place?

    this has got to be the funniest thing ive read in ages


    as i see it tescos have the entier wwf wrestling team working for them lol

    and the staff dont throw you to the ground its more than there jobs worth

    I assure you they do, and do so frequently I have witnessed at least four episodes of Tesco staff swarming a victim, I am knowledgable of three seperate cases two of which are currently going through the settling process as MrT's sphinctre reverberates due to looming litigation.
