THAT explains it!!!
There was a report in the national press today about Paul Thatcher, a homeless tramp who spent the night in a primary school at Henley on Thames and was arrested and charged with the theft of ONE teabag!
He has been remanded in police custody until March 11th.......and may be sent down for his crime when he reappears in court in 13 days time
His actual charge was "Stealing a beverage of value unknown." My first thought was that surely SOMEONE in the court could divide £1.65 by 160?? and besides, he didn't actually steal the teabag, he merely used it and it was left on the premises.
If he knicked the diamond and gold teabag, it would explain a lot but I have a sneaking suspicion that the police have reached a new depth in egotistical depravity by detaining this man............
