Being told off as an adultWhen was the last time you were properly told off? You know: treated as an errant child rather than the sophisticated adult you are.
The sort of thing that dredges up an involuntary teenage mumble of "Sorry, Miss" whilst you stare at the ground.
Go on, tell us what childish thing you were up to when you got caught.
Oh, and can we have more than one-line answers this time? Cheers!

This happened many years agoInfact it's about a friend of my dads, back in University days in Swansea in the late 50s.
Howell, was walking back from the pub one night a little worse for wear, when he decided it would be a good idea to climb a lamp post.
Fair play, he maanged to get to the top in his drunken state, but as he was admiring the view he heard a stern voice from ground level.
"Oi! You there!"
He looked down to see a man in a familiar blue uniform.
"Get down NOW!"
He carefully did so
"Right! You follow me."
So off they went in the direction of the police station.
After about a mile, Howell realised it was infact a bus conductor.
