Sods Law

March 4, 2008, 11:02 PM

I never ever EVER get id'd at the co-op ever. So I thought sod it, I can't be arsed carrying my handbag, it weighs a ton. I grabbed my credit card (I lost my bank card on saturday night) and shuffled off to the shop, feeling like shite in much need of chocolate

So I eventualy got to the shop, 3 year olds walk slooooowly, grabbed loads of chocolate and other essentials, gets to the till '10 lambert & Butler please'

'Do you have any ID? she asks

'Whaaaaaaaaaaat? Im 25 O_O Im in here almost everyday, you serve me all the time, and the one time I don't have my ID you ask me for it?!' Flabbergasted I was

I looked at my daughter and thought, how old does she think I am? Fucking hell.....

I eventually got my way but ffs, I go in there and buy wine every single week with no problem >=(

Fucking sods law......

We've got it figured that to get into Concrete (good night club) without being ID'd, my mate just has to get his out. When he has it out, we never get ID'd but if it's in his wallet, they always ask. Stuff like that happens all the time though.

The penalties for selling alcohol/tobacco to people who are underage are too harsh to take any chances. I'm gonna get busted for selling cigarettes to minors someday, but I'm generally too lazy to card someone...unless they look WAY too young.

I do think it's crap that you still have to prove you're of age after doing so much business there. =]

I was so miffed, it was like te only time I have ever not had my ID ith me. Stupid thing is tho, when I was taking my card out of my bag I was thinking, should I take my ID? Nah...I don't need it for cigarettes ........ >=(

Someone smashed a bottle of red wine all over the floor so I had a giggle about that haha,serves themn right for thinking I 16 when Im an old fart

You should take it as a complement the guy probably found you so beautiful but knew such a looser like him stood no chance with such an amazing woman and asked for ID in a vain attempt to see if you were underage and therefore illegal there by soothing his miserable ego.

Luckly I didn't get ID'ed last night because I don't carry ID with me at all, but I was reading the little sign by the counter that said any one caught selling alcohol to underaged children can get fined upto £5000 and anyone caught buying alcohol for anyone underaged can get fined £80 plus criminal record or some shit.

LOLZ @ you thos

The age for fags is 18 now, so it's not quite as bad as you think. ;D

It's bad enough, someone pointed that out to me last night aswel. I get ID'd in Asda all the time, it's a right pain in the arse, they look at it as though it's fake, coz I'm like so old
