I witnessed a crime
Freddy Woo writes, "A group of us once staggered home so insensible with drink that we failed to notice someone being killed and buried in a shallow grave not more than 50 yards away. A crime unsolved to this day."
Have you witnessed a crime and done bugger all about it? Or are you a have-a-go hero?
Whatever. Tell us about it...

It actually really annoys me that they assume everyone in the country owns a TV. I spent my 3rd year at uni, and most of my masters, without a TV. They sent me a letter saying something along the lines of "do you know it's the law to have a license if you have a tv?". I thought 'fair enough', and threw the letter away, as I obviously didn't have one. I got another letter. And another: I replied to this one, saying "I don't have one, stop writing to me". I got another 3 letters, increasing in threat, printed on red paper. I replied to those as well. The letters started saying "license vans are in your area! you will get caught!"
I eventually stopped them by writing a letter threatening legal action for harrassment, and suggested they reimburse me for my time. Tey wrote a lovely apologetic letter back, and sent me a stamp. A single, solitary stamp, as compensation for writing about 6 letters to them telling them the same thing every time. Damn them.
