I thought I''d go for a tabloid sensationalist headline. He''s been fined for lack of TV licence.

No need to apologise, I, for one, liked what you did there.

Hopefully this will be a "remote" incident and he can now "channel" all his thoughts towards the new season.

The young tax dodgers probaly get 12 quid  a week, he gets 12000k or something stupid. But we all have to pay for it, even tax dodgers. Saying that, scrap the fee. Waste of money.

[Grando 263]

How dare you sir! £120 for the BBC is the best value going. Gawd bless ''em!

12000k - blimey! That''s like £12 million a week. I think that solves the ''where has all the money gone'' debate.

B***ocks!

I have a TV liscence, full and in date, registered to my address and they still knocked on the door...

when my GF presented them with the Liscence they were adament it was not valid.. it turns out they had cocked up in the office by "pressing the wrong button"

 the smug Twat didnt apologise to my girlfriend for the error caused by the organisation, nor did he apologise for pushing against the door atfer knocking on it whilst my Gf was opening it and holding my little girl (then only 6 months old) in her arms...

if i had been there i''d of told him not to return to the property under ANY circumstances, and given him a pen and peice of paper to write and hand sign a letter of apology.. if he handt of done it id of made a complaint.. if he had of done it id of ripped it up in his face, told him to sod off, and still made a complaint.

Can I assume that as you dont know how much a tv licence costs, you indeed do not have one yourself? Its £139.50 I believe.

yeh your right.. too true mate..

It takes a Certain kind of person to work for the government.. TV Licence, Traffic Wardens etc.. they must of had their head flushed down the bog a few times in their youth (and probably rightly so!) and are now getting their own back.

why do they do it? self importance? nothing better to do? to try and appear a "big man" or simply because they have a tiny todger? We will never know.

 I remember some council chap banging on my parents house door and shouting because the skip outside the house (which was nothing to do with my parents) was sitting under trees and damaging a flower bed.. he was quoting all these rights etc and how he was going to fine my parents until my dad pointed out that the skip said "property of City Care" and the city care man was trimming the trees and putting the waste into the skip whilst council suit was shouting....  yes.. the skip BELONGED to the company hired BY THE COUNCIL to do the work on the street that day!

 suit went bright red, gawped and walked off... my parents DID get a letter of apology though after complaining.. signed by the chap who had gone round...

My personal favourite was Dennis Pennis (aka Paul Kaye) approaching Jim Carrey shouting "Jim, Jim, Jim, Autograph??" When Mr Carrey stopped, Paul Kaye signs a piece of paper & hands to Jim saying "Treasure it son!"

Love it.

[Evil Monkey 52]

Ha, that''s a brilliant story.  I''m still going to use it.

Whilst I find train guards to be perfectly pleasant, its the actual

station guards that get me.  Jumped up little jobsworths who think

that because they have to supervise a ticket barrier they''re the

equivalent of the Army and can treat those with suspicious tickets with

disdain.  "I''m sorry sir, you cannot use this ticket from this

station, different operator and all that, nothing I can do, I don''t

care if you''ve been told its allowed before I''m saying no, no need to

raise your voice sir, you''ll have to pay for another ticket sir... why

are you hitting me, sir?"  Smug little b''stards...

hop the barrier and keep walking... there is little they can do... call the police? maybe but once youve blended into a crowd in some packed city center street they wont give 2 hoots about looking for you.
