At the beginning of December i bought another house to to do a quick renovation on and to sell on to make myself some money as you do, which is another reason why i've not been on here as much as i've been spending a lot of evenings working.

So as normal i went there tonight after i finished work to find my new front door i fitted a couple of weeks lying under the front window and in its place was some lovely plywood with a note attached to it from West Mercia Police.

Yes they had raided the house for Drugs, gaining entry with the Big Red Key!!!!!!!

After unscrewing my plywood door i walked in to find a search warrant, a groveling letter, a compensation form and a telephone number.

After calling the telephone number and said who i was a very polite policeman said they  were after the previous occupants  as they were given information that  lead them to believe illegal substances were in the house and realised they had made a mistake once they entered the house and found it empty. Apology after apology followed for the mistake and the inconvenience followed by another apology.
So now i need yet another new front door courtesy of West Mercia Police. :-?

You think thats bad. Last January I was working in County Durham and I had 4 days work Monday, Tuesday and Thursday, Friday so on Tuesday I can home to see the wife (yes I know I must be mad ) anyway Wednesday night I was washing up after tea and there was a knock at the door so I went and answered it and standing there where 2 of Cheshire finest. They said "Mr Pete Elite" I said "yes" they said I have a warrant for your arrest for not attending court in 2000. I said your taking the pi55 arnt you as my daughter works for the plod and I thought it was a wind up. No they said youve got to come with us as you have to appear in Birkenhead court tomorrow. Anyway long and short of it all was led away in hand cuffs the neighbours curtains twitching my wife going mad at the coppers, a night in the cells and an early morning drive to Birkenhead courts in a Securicor Van then stuck in a cell with the smelliest tramp in the world to be put up infront of the judge to be charged with drunk driving in 2000. What really poxed me off was it could have been sorted out on the night of the arrest if the two Cheshire coppers could be arsed to drive me to the cop shop and take my fingerprints and match them with the ones of the drunk driver which where take when he was arrested. So in the end i lost £500 work and I had to take time out to give my prints at the local plod shop and my daughter doesnt understand why I dont like and will never help the police again

They may not just give you the money. They may get some community service youths to do the job instead

[Timbuk]

. They may get some community service youths to do the job instead

I think thats who was doing their intelligence work

[Timbuk]

They said "Mr Pete Elite" I said "yes" they said I have a warrant for your arrest

Thats where the problem is, you answered to Mr Pete Elite

More waste of public money..... , laugh,.....nearly cried ......?.. Elite petes comments I can relate too, just for helpin out some unfortunate punter that the bouncers gave a dig which they should'nt have), then realising they fuxxed up pissed off. the punter left outside on the deck. Barmaid told is about him, I went outside put him in recovery position, got one my sleeping bags (as it was very cold) put that over him. Police turn up, I advise the officer that the punter had a fractured skull, he administered a bandage etc.. two ambulances turn up. i go back in the bar, next thing a few officers come in questioning, advised them about the boncers. they then arrest me and my mate 2.30 a.m. Sunday morning. Banged up in peckham nick, eventually got out at 10.30p.m. sunday evening, went home in a pair of disposable overalls and plimsoles. At around 8.00/8.30 a.m. the seargant advised me the punter had a fractured skull. Had to get a brief etc., etc..3 months later, despite the police actaully knowing the bouncer wacked the punter. I was able to go back and get my belongings due to insufficient evidence.
This is just one story I have on this subject, but I can site several others of which I have been involved in through no fault of my own just through helping folks out and yes some down to me.
