Got into my car in a (albeit deserted) car park at about 6.30. Turned my lights and engine on and found myself a podcast to listen to. Suddenly a police van screeches into the car park from nowhere and blocks me in. Five (FIVE!!!) police officers get out, one next to my passenger door, two behind and one at the driver's door.
It's fair to say I very nearly lost my **** right there.
Anyway, turned out there'd been a spate of burglaries in the area and they considered my behaviour suspicious. They blocked me and surrounded me in incase I tried to drive or run away.
I was amazed they would approach me so aggressively for what was effectively a spot-check. Especially as they had clearly run a check on my car already as they knew my name.
Utter, utter fascists.
God Bless St Cliff
It's a bonus
Don't you live in Yorkshire?
still nobody has ever 'confiscated' money or *ahem* anything else from me up here.
would get regularly "taxed" around N4 back in the day
