This blokes on 21k a month why would he need to be a tea leaf? madness.

I believe 'past convictions for theft and tax evasion' answers that ;-) Some people always want more, same as the stockbroker who was fare dodging and then paid the £40k in missing fares straight off the bat.

I remember a rich & famous TV chef who was caught out not putting items through the till at a supermarket. People just do not expect to get caught.

Ah yes Mr W-T from RSC :

"So Anthony - what did you get with your £5?"

"A lobster, a tin of foie gras, a couple of truffles and here's the £4.32 change ..."

because some believe they can get away with it, and of course many do.

[youngmafbog]

Quite possibly he gets a kick from doing it.

Instead of a fine he should be forced to see a shrink - at his cost.

Bound to happen with self service..I hate them....NO THERE IS NOTHING IN BAGGAGE AREA ! Rant over

[ludwig]

Some people are just mean and dishonest. It's good that the fine has been based on his income.

[Hopkirk]

Don't people realise it's all on camera?

He's a rat for eating veal anyway.
