I went to the nick to ask for it back, but it hadn't been handed in yet by the officers concerned.<br /><br />They said "Don't ring us, we'll ring you" fair enough, so I waited a couple of weeks and rang them up anyway.<br /><br />"Ah yes, Mr Wadsworth, two of our officers were indeed given your passport by the shopkeeper"<br /><br />"Right, can I come and collect it?"<br /><br />"Sorry no, our rule with lost property is, if it's not collected within x days, then we destroy it"<br /><br />"Wot? You've destroyed my passport, despite I'd reported it missing, it had my name and address in and it was in the possession of the police the whole time?"<br /><br />"Yes"<br /><br />"Oh just fuck off then" I shouted and slammed down the 'phone.<br /><br />"Did you just tell the police to fuck off?" asked a colleague.<br /><br />"Yes, what are they going to do? Arrest me? They wouldn't be able to track me down, would they?"Mark Wadsworthhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07733511175178098449noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3271194216217582823.post-61147769376721069512012-05-25T08:00:20.435+01:002012-05-25T08:00:20.435+01:00"Woman finds hat in tree."
