Right gang, I know I've started a few threads down memory lane but here's another.


What was your first contact with the law that resulted in your collar being felt?


P.s We want the truth DM, and you Hona, *Bob* and we'll save the best till last eh Louisa.


Daizee we've all been on Bromley highstreet at chucking out time at some point in our lives so you can stay mute on this one. Thanks.

norn irons favourite past-time, rioting. i got picked out from a crowd photo like many others, unlike some of the others although i was placed at the scene, there was no actual photo of me chucking anything, so it was words of advice to the parents and believe it or not it did the trick.

Wolfie why the assumption that ppl on here have done bad in the past (perhaps present and almost certainly the future, by your reckoning)? ;-)


I've nothing to come clean about on the subject of stepping onto the wrong side of the law but I can say I came rather close to a high security officer and her gun... I literally collided with her after the doors I was stuck between ejected me rather aggressively and she was on the other side... *ah the memories!*

Police used to regularly come and "move us on" from "the dips" and/or Point Hill on Blackeath, whci in the very early 90s were the places that lots of teens used to go and enjoy those teenage tipples mentioned in the other thread.


Remember one very drunk, and very stupid lad headbutting a copper, and so we all had to run run run, which can be difficult when not used to being very drunk!

Whilst living in Exeter in the 90s I was woken up at 3am by police doing a raid on my flight, looking for someone with my name. Much "discussion" took place and when I showed my (Irish - lucky me) passport they were even more pleased. It was only when they saw the DoB they realised they had the wrong person. A few more clarifications later and their manner changed from cocky and aggresive to pissed-off and aggressive. I wasn't impressed

I once managed to get picked up for being drunk and disorderly, indecent exposure, possession of an illegal substance and making an illegal campfire all in one go.


But they were only Park?s Board Police and they let us go when we said sorry and promised not to do it again.

    • Hello. Would you like a sofa bed? We have one to give away…photos attached. The scatter cushions are not included.
    • Complaint submitted.  Your helpful link took me straight to the relevant page. 🙏
    • I spend a riddiculous amount of time at the PO.  Every day.  I watch and I watch closely.  Returns take seconds.  The wait might be long but the scan takes a second.  The only thing that slows down a return is people scrolling through their phones looking for QR codes. Business customers like me take seconds.  I might have up to 2 bags of boxes but every one is perfectly packaged and pre-paid.  It just needs a scan.  Seconds. For customers like me and for returns customers they could just put in a self-service check out and we would all be in and out in minutes.  Quicker than M&S.   Or, have a dedicated window for scanning and nothing else.  No facility to handle money at that window so nobody is tempted to ask for a service other than scanning.  That would get the queues down instantly. It is the people picking up things that backs up the queue.  The branch is not equipped to provide the service.  Next time you're in the branch take a look at the shelf space immediately behind the servers.  A few stacking shelves.  That's all the space they have.  Everything else is on the floor in a mess.  I take on board what someone said about the private delivery companies not delivering to Peckham and I didn't know that.   The biggest time wasting service of all is Parcelforce.  If someone in front of me asks for Parcelforce I want to cry.  Long, long, forms need to be filled out by hand, in triplicate.  It is Dickensian.   Please consider taking a few minutes to fill out an online complaint (link below).  I honestly believe that an influx of complaints might make a difference.  I don't want to demoralise the staff or anything sinister but the PO needs to see that the branch is broken. https://www.postoffice.co.uk/contact-us/in-branch-customer-experience    
    • Couldn't agree more with the frustration. I avoid it like the plague but made the mistake of picking up a parcel a couple of months ago and it took them 20 minutes to find it. This was after queuing for an hour. All the pickup parcels were just in a massive heap with no order or organisation so they manually had to search for everything. Bizarre and deeply annoying as if run well it could be a good asset to the Post Office and of course the community. Also, very much agree with the point re not taking it out on counter staff as it must be a terrible and demoralising environment to work in.
