He said, 'Can't you just wait?' I replied, 'Oh full of Christmas aren't you, you festive prick,' and was forced to elbow him roughly to move him out of the way so I could put her bag there Spineless twat.

and he had a plump German sausage hanging out of the front of his pants and he would look all embarrassed and you could raise one eyebrow at him and he would struggle to get his trousers back up, but the crotch would catch on the sausage and it would fall out and land on the floor of the tube just as the doors opened and someone would walk onto the train and stand on it and he would be all like "Ach Mein Gott! Du Hast Trodden ont mein Wurst!" and then he would run off all red faced and sweaty and the train would all cheer and then pick you up and carry you through the town and there would be ticker tape and all teh young men of the village would be lining up to perform the ceremonial jizzing on your awesome norks.

Actually, it's probably him doing the small spend first to see if your card works, and then he would run up a fucking massive bill.

from an account I'd never used (it came with my mortgage). I'd cut the debit card up the day it came and never used the account once so no-one could have skimmed it or got the details from an online transaction.

I'm told the way these frauds are done has changed over time - they tend to go for a small amount (like your £25) from a large number of people, as many wouldn't notice it gone.
Kind of like an Albanian 'Brewster's Millions'...

they are often franchised, so there is no corporate secruity, there are cameras everywhere, to pick up your pin and the high counters make ity easy to skim your card.

HSBC picked up two tiny fraudulent uses after one day, and have already blocked, then cancelled my card. That's good enough protection for me.

Myself and a few friends once accidentally gate-crashed a wake for a pet pig (seriously!) and on the way back to our campsite passed a house with a big banner saying, "To Porky (or somesuch), I'll miss you forever.

We were holed up in the hotel bar in this village, getting a bit loud and obnoxious to be honest. Not really sensing the atmosphere, we just wondered why they'd failed to call last orders since eleven and it was half-one before they did.
I asked why and they said, "Oh, it's a wake". We were gutted, we thought we'd just destroyed the send off for someone's Gran! It was only when we asked who died the barman told us that it was someone's pig.

"Back in 10 minutes, just nipped to the shops"
And she'll hang around for ten minutes and then ZOMBIE GRAN will lurch across the graveyard and grap her arm and rip it off at the shoulder and start tearing chunks of flesh off it and then smacking her upside the head with the soggy end and she'll be all like "Oh no! use said use were popping down the shops I didn't realise use meant use were a zombie off to kill and eat all the brains of everyone in the shop!" and then ZOMBIE GRAN would grap her hair and she'd be all screaming and stuff and ZOMBIE GRAN would bite her bottom jaw off and be all crunching it like a chicken gizzard and she'd be running round in circles trying to make a noise but her tongue would be all flopping down her front and pissing blood everywhere so she'd get all weak and fall over and ZOMBIE GRAN would take her time finishing the rest of her off.

My mum dreamt something similar the other night.
Dead Nana was never fussy on my mum. It comes out in her nightmares.
