Looking for records on another person and came across this......
"A number of prosecutions have also been brought this week in a continuing effort to protect against late-night antisocial behaviour. Seventeen more people were prosecuted for urinating in the street, all of whom received fines of either £100 or £140""
Have to wonder how the fines were calculated. Is it a male/female issue, or whether it was done discreetly, or full frontal as I once saw, with about eight guys
doing it on a motorway embankment.

It's to do with the strength. A very dilute solution with a watery appearance is deemed to be more ecologically friendly, and less smelly, and therefore attracts a smaller fine.
However, a really strong vintage of dark greeny/yellow, with a particularly pungent scent, is more damaging to the environment and the nasal passages and therefore commands a maximum penalty. |

A friend of mine was prosecuted for peeing in the doorway of a L@dbrokes many years ago. His plea in mitigation: 'They've pi**ed on me often enough'.

MANY years ago The Rolling Stones were arrested for pissing against a wall, with their backs to the road, outside The Upper Cut, which was Billy Walkers nightclub, in Forest Gate, east London.
This was in the days before Newham existed, it was good old West Ham and East Ham then, and the local rag was the Stratford Express (now dead and buried) But it made for front page news. It wouldn't make the news in the Newham Recorder at all these days. They can't even get all the arrests and trials for murders on the front page, there's not enough room. |

Got caught short in the UK, and a plod who was going past decided to arrest me for píssing against a wall. So after he called for back up and the wagon full of pot-bellied piglets arrived, i was duly arrested. Back at the plod shop the alleged offences had topped up a wee bit. But after an irate chat with my solicitor they told me i would be charged with "Defacing public property" This was later thrown out of court..

By:
I'm no supporter of peeing in the street, but if you're caught short there is always somewhere out of sight where you can do it.
I saw two young men walking past my house on the opposite ide of the road stop and pee on some grass in full view of the traffic going by. There are plenty of places nearby where they could have done it in private. Which simply shows their lack of respect for the law. |
|
By:
Aye, that's why my case was thrown out. An over zealous piglet who decided to arrest me for píssing "out of sight" just because he'd been down the same back street banging a prossy no doubt.

I was driving a mini-bus with a mixed team of Hockey
Players and subs on board-- Everyone was drinking cans of beer -- On a Scots border road with no sign of loos or anything They screamed out to stop so they could per -/ The Ladies mostly as they cannot handle volume being used to Wine . I pulled over and told them there was a ditch running ahead Of the bus by the side of the road .. Off they went into the darkness .. After a suitable gap i threw the headlights on full .. Talk about rabbits caught in headlights  When the Ladies were back on the bus, some with wet panties.. The guys decided to go out , but obviously NOT in front of the bus !! No they went round the back -- so i slowly accelerated creeping the bus down the road As they waddled along trousers near knees trying to keep in the shadow of the bus !!  Because of that the ladies let me off as they took photos out of the back window !! Happy days |
