Awesome pic with the story "One of the many snowmen across the UK which remained unstolen"

It ain't a nice road but you don't expect anybody to nick your snowman."

Classic.

Police said she thought it demanded their involvement because she had used pound coins for the eyes and teaspoons for the arms.

lol

Quick get the van and nick him.

I used to answer and dispatch to 999 calls and 9/10 calls really aren't worthy of calling 999. I've spoken to people who have a spider in their front room through to people who have asked if we could shut their gate on our 'rounds' cause its blowing in the wind.

A neighbour of mine once had her hanging baskets nicked off the front of her house.

She should have been fined.

Whilst she was calling in, some poor sole was dying and in need of an ambulance.

Well thats a theft but even that doesn't warrant a 999 call!

Blue Cypher · 3 Dec 2010 at 10:35

The woman, from Chatham, Kent, has been "spoken to" by officers to advise her about what constitutes a real emergency.

He's been Snow-knapped! :eek:

She'll probably get his body parts posted back in a bucket
