The procurator fiscal said when Anderson approached the postal worker, “to his horrorâ€

the scumbag will be let off as his parents are divorced or seperated. the postie will be told by the manager that he will be given a conduct code for leaving the mail. whats the point of complaining to the plod anymore

When I was jumped a few months ago, the line manager tried his best to show concern, but you could really tell he was more concerned about him having to deliver the mail himself on a Saturday morning in the rain. The soft sod who tried to steal the pouch tried to punch me, but was too far gone on White Lightning and speed. His two mates were even worse than him. The coppers picked one of them up, but let him go. He tipped his mate off who got rid of the clothing he wore on the day so when the coppers called, there was nothing to identify him. Not one manager apart from this line manager ever enquired about me. From the DUM up, not one ounce of concern. As there were three of them, I wasn't going to turn the bike around and have a go back even though I fancied my chances against the mush who threw the punch. It's taken several months, but I've found out where they hang about from a mate of mine. It's just a matter of time before I find out where they live, then one night after work I'll be making a social call. It's often strange the was people don't recognise you in your civvies. :wink:
