Now, there was no need for that...
Tell us about the times when an already difficult situation has been made worse for no good reason. Pollollups writes, "As if being given a muscle relaxant and trapped in an MRI tube wasn't bad enough: whilst thus immobilised, they played me Dido."

First night in "jail"
Me and 2 mates were taking a few days off from university (in Belfast) to visit Dublin. Parked the car in a nice side road and strolled of in search of a hotel. Came back 40 minutes later to find the car window had been smashed and a few things stolen. No need for that you think? One police officer already waiting at the car, we followed him to the police station to sort things out. Trying to get a hotel turns out to be impossible (cup night, but how should we know?), all hotels booked. 6pm is no time to get the car repaired, so we ended up in "jail", sleeping in one of the cells in said police station. No need for that.
We had quite a few drinks that night in order to wash down the anger, but imagine coming back to the police station only to find totally different police officers (shifts changed in the meantime) and explain to them that you are meant to sleep in that cell over there! No need for that indeed!
Turned out ok in the end, we told them about the nice female police officer (Thanks, Bernadette, we will never forget you) who had allowed us to sleep in the cell in the first place.
Sorry for length!
