    The reason I couldn't understand your post was because your quotes were all screwed up and your grammar was a bit ropey, to be honest I've seen better composed posts done by 5 yr olds using crayons. ;);)

    But more importantly, I have learn my lesson. On my second visit to my friends house, even with the fact I had a ticket, I still felt like a naughty boy who was doing wrong. I didn't enjoy that feeling and don't want to go though it again, so will be "paying my way" as you put it.


    The reason you felt like a naughty boy was "because you were", 'scuse the grammar' if it doesn't suit

    5 year old schoolboy errors are your field not mine, I actually now think you are too urbanised to realise what you have started in this topic. Again, GROW UP and join the folks that actually contribute to society, unlike yourself that scrounges on the fringe,

    Inspite of your attacks on me , I still feel sorry for you. So sad that anyone would want to seek support for frauding the rest of us.:mad::mad:
    I like the thanks button, but ,please, an I agree button.

    Will the grammar and spelling police respect I do make grammatical errors, and have carp spelling, no need to remind me.;)

    Always expect the unexpected:eek:and then you won't be dissapointed
  • Well thats the post, understand or go away little man

    I won't go away because of your loving mentoring, I'm now a reformed character and now wish to help you back. Could you please google "adult special needs english class" this might help with your grammar and quotation skills.

    Attacking you, I'm only returning the favour. but why answer "grow up" with capitals, it means your shouting and there's no need for that, also putting "grow up" in bold means your very cross with me. In fact any more cross and they could use you for a crucifixion outside the Esquiline gate.:rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:

    I once did a similar thing at a similar stage to you, in my life. I decided to catch the train to get back from a party the morning after and to save the last few pounds I had left. I knew before i went to this party I would be stretching it financially so it was a conscious decision; albeit an out of character and stupid decision. LUck was against me that morning and where there was previously hardly ever any employees at the exit, that morning there was. I was asked for my details and for a moment I considered giving false ones, but decided against it. I was written to and fined. (This was decades ago). However, the letter cleverly told me that this 'might not' be the end of things and they might still come to visit me and prosecute me. I kind of knew they wouldn't but the 'what if' scared the pants off of me and I never did it again.

    Forward wind many decades and now I'm a grey haired old fart, I was annoyed reading your post (ahem...) because I didn't believe you had to get to an emergency, but that's me being an old fart. HOwever, I did empathise with your panic and dilemma!

    One day you too will be a grey hair (or bald) old fart and remembering the panic you once felt about evading a fare.

    At least you have a conscience (well, after you gave the false details) some people wouldn't care less after the event at all.

    Irrelevant and Worthless post now as I won't be going to court and getting prosecuted. :j



    Irrelevant and Worthless post now as the Train Operating Company won't be contacting me. :j
    How you've changed your tune there...Irrelevant? Maybe. Worthless? Definitely not. :beer:
