Potential fine over t-shirt slogan :)
 
Controversial topic of the day:
http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/england/c...re/6943734.stm

Man warned of £80 fine if he continues to wear t-shirt with "Don't **** me off, I'm running out of places to hide the bodies" slogan :D

Thing is, I'm not sure whether this is "political correctness gone mad, instigated by liberal left wing weenies", or "right wing draconian authoritarianism gone mad". Either way, I thought it was funny :D

That's Peterborough for you.

If you're not having a fight on a Friday night down Broadway- they fine you.

You also get fined for not using your full 'retail park hours' quota.

Street warden ? is that one of the community support people then ?

sounds like someone who's just been taught in a class room the "fine letter of the Law", but lacks any real world experiance, to me.

Cheers Mark.

My mate Dan's a huge UK Subs fan, and he got the same line when he was in Brighton- "Someone's complained about the language on your shirt, you'll have to take it off". So he did, displaying the massive "PUNK AS F**K" tattoo that runs across his shoulders :cool: "Wot? You want me to take me skin orf as well? Hur hur hur"

Personally, speaking as a parent, I think there is a right time and place for clothing with swear words and such. In the middle of the day walking down the high street is not one of them.

i find them childish and completely devoid of humour.

which is ironic cos it sums me up nicely

whoda thunk it.
