SupraStar 3000 Posted December 1, 2004 Share Posted December 1, 2004 This was sent to me in all seriousness, but it could be a hoax! I was told something on Saturday night that sounds as though it has come from a story book but it is true and I would like to share it with everyone One day last week a friend of ours, who is a teacher at Stevenson's College in Coalville, Leics was told by one of her students of an unpleasant experience she had had in the main shopping areas of Leicester. "She was walking up the Main Street when a guy of an Asian origin in front of her pulled something out of his trouser pocket and in doing so accidentally pulled out his wallet also. He did not realise that his wallet had fallen to the ground and he continued to walk up the street. The girl saw this happen so she picked up the wallet and shouted after him. On hearing her voice he stepped up his pace, so did she. This continued for a while but she persisted, he would not answer to her calling him Oi, Hiya, you dropped your wallet or anything else. She thought she would look inside his wallet to see if there was a name, there was but she could not pronounce it. There was also a wad of notes in it. By this time the guy had gone further ahead of her, so she yelled a few times "You dropped your wallet" at the top of her voice. He eventually stopped and turned round to her, She asked him why he had not stopped when she first called to him, but he did not reply. She thought the man looked very worried so she took particular notice of his looks. He thanked her for giving back the wallet and then she was taken aback at what he said next. He asked her if she was local and if she came into Leicester regularly, when she asked why. He just said "Do not come into Leicester on 5th December" She asked him why but he did not say just repeated it and ran off. She thought his actions were very strange and it did upset her. When she got home she told her parents and they thought it best to inform the Police. A statement was taken and they asked her if she would be able to recognise him again. From 150 photographs on a national file held by the Police she picked out this man. It appears that he is a member of Al Qaeda. The Police are taking this statement seriously. I know that I have waffled on but I thought it important you know the whole story and then you can pass it on to your family and friends who might just go into Leicester Christmas Shopping on that Sunday. Tell them NOT to go, just in case. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bill Prawn Posted December 2, 2004 Share Posted December 2, 2004 This was a joke that did the rounds a while ago. It was about the IRA then The punchline is; Asian/Irish chap: Don't go to wherever this weekend. You: Why is something going to happen? Asian/Irish chap: No it's a shithole.
