Cannot remember my actual vintage but it was definitely before age ten or possibly even before primary school commencent at five. I used to be given six 'pennies' to pop off to the local Sunday School; three pennies were for the collection at the 'Kirk' and three pennies were for sweets. After a little while I realised that there were no 'blocks' on my starting my first 'savings scheme' so I retained one of the three pennies meant for the collection. I cannot recall how much my 'bank' had grown to when my dear old mum found my stash of pennies hidden behind the iron leg at the foot of our kitchen cooker. Although not physically punished for cheating/defrauding the Church of Scotland I was penalised by being told that I was stealing from the poor in the world! Ho-hum!! Strangely I never forgave the 'Kirk' and all religous teaching and now live a delightful life of immorality, sin and debauchery!! This is my virgin 'post' on this section of 'Not 606' however I am a regular on the 'cuddies' and punting section. PS - I have unnatural desires for some of my female first cousins!!!
Yep, I was serving at the time. Suspended for nigh on 2 years and then the charges were eventually dropped.
Were you on full pay when you were suspended and did you get some compensation after the charges were dropped?
Full pay for 2 years. You don't get compensated just because charges are dropped, if that were the case the UK would be bankrupt
Yeah, but I was thinking that you weren't on full pay and you got sacked for nothing, so in that case surely you would have been entitled to something
Cautioned by the police for calling up the Inverbervie Chipper and telling the owner I was going to plough his wife. Think I was 15 or so.
