where the hell do you work?
as opposed to when we rang 999 a couple of years ago because a woman was being attacked behind our house by a couple of men. and the police didn't even show up. poor girl. i don't know what happened to her, but i really hope she was ok.
What him being a paedophile got to do with it?
It just seems a lil strange that you mentioned it. Was is cos he was a paedophile? Or because he wouldnt move?
Would you have called the police if he wasnt what he was?
Ouch!! :eek2:
How did it shatter in your mouth?
An ex-boyfriend also once called an ambulance for me because I was having a panic attack, and he thought I couldn't breathe.
Lucky you....
I called them last when there were a bunch of scallies with a fire in the field behind my estate, drinking, making noise and stuff.
I was like :eek: as well but then I realised
I mentioned it because he kept insisting that he was a convicted paedophile and thus feared for his life, and kept begging us to leave him alone. We called the police because he was being very loud and aggressive towards some staff, and was scaring the public. The fact that he was a paedophile was only mentioned because he was shouting it at us.
Cheater...
Last time was when a diskhead b/f of a buddy of mine fell off a hill. Though if he hadn't fallen, I would have pushed him.
And they took about an hour to arrive.
I called one yesterday too. I call one pretty much everyday. I don't dial 999 though, I dial a more special number and bypass 999.
They were probably out dealing with one of the people who think it is 'a laugh' and 'fun' to call the emergency services. When a 3 year old picks up the phone and dials 999 for a giggle the Police have to be dispatched, which diverts their attention from a more urgent call.
When I was younger the 9 button got stuck on our phone but I just got on the line and explained what had happened to the operator. She told me to replace the handset and she would clear the line. We were not to pick it up again for 7 minutes. When the same happened to my dad he just put the phone down, little realising the police would come out. They did. We bought a new phone pretty quickly!
it was an old one! no wonder i have a phobia of veins, the blood was pouring and i was petrified about mercury poisining!!
but yeh, I've never called them.
I've rang the fire service, the ambulance service and the police service. Oh dear.
Actually no, I've just remembered, I rang the police late last year when we had some trouble in work. Stupid scallies causing trouble.
..Did it take you a long time to dig up such an amazingly dead thread?
Edit: Just realised how old this thread is!
