ShopliftingWhen I was young and impressionable and on holiday in France, I followed some friends into a sweet shop and we each stole something. I was so mortified by this, I returned them.
My lack of French hampered this somewhat - they had no idea why the small English boy wanted to add some chews to the open box, and saw it as an attempt by a nasty foreigner oik to contaminate their stock. Not my best day.
What have you lifted?

Thieving to orderWhen I was a small boy I went to a posh private school that actually had its own book shop.
A couple of my classmates would steal books to order for you. They didn't charge you any money, it was just a goodwill thing.
Stupid at so many levels, of course, but it seemed so exciting and naughty at the time.

:-)That's quite charming that they just gave them to whoever wanted them. Awww.
