Bureaucracy gone wild in the UK. I was arrested for eating an ice cream in the street, I was flabbergasted.

Whilst strolling down the pleasant avenues of my local village (Skegness) I purchased an iced cream from a local purveyor of frozen delicacies and decided to eat my treat as I continued my stroll. Well, I am sure you can sympathise with my horror when I was forced to the ground by several senior ladies of the community who were shortly joined by 2 officers of the Skegness constabulary....I was shocked and stunned. My astonishment manifested itself by my screaming of 'why are you attacking me for eating an ice cream.' Their answer was STUNNING! They tried to change the subject by suggesting that I had sneaked into the over 50's women's laundry room in the local community hall and had 'stolen' some articles of undergarments and had been doing this since I became a member of SW. Well, you could have knocked me over with a feather when the police officers added to the injustice by saying that I was not eating an ice cream but was in fact drinking a can of super strength cider and that I had not only not paid for this but had urinated on the front step of the shop. I was backafronted, the policeman then asked me why I was not wearing any trousers and I explained to him that my dear friend @hunkalove does this all the time in the US and that it is legal there...I think it may be time to emigrate. Thoughts and I thank you in advance for your symathy.
