![]() But, oh, how my heart rose when His Honour on the bench admitted, without actually sympathising, that ‘frustration at internet banking is perhaps a daily occurrence for many people’. He also got a stern talking-to from Judge Thomas Gilbart about wasting police time. He was traced, arrested, charged with malicious communication and given a suspended sentence. Use the B‑word lightly and authority clamps down hard (I once saw a man led off to be strip-searched at Boston airport after a stupid joke about something which, he said, had ‘bombed’).īut 44-year-old Dean Prescott from Hindley in Greater Manchester got into a temper one day when he was on the wrong side of some lager, an anti-anxiety drug and a struggle with his bank’s website - and rang 999, threatening to blow up Lloyds. Pranking about bombs is wrong and stupid: of course it is.
