Picture the scene…it’s Valentine’s Day, you have gone (reluctantly) to the cinema with your wife to see ‘Fifty Shades of Grey’ and when you arrive, you see a woman in handcuffs. Kinky? No, she has just been arrested by the Police!
Only in Scotland could this bizarre event have occurred. Apparently, during an earlier showing of the film, a group of three women became rather rowdy. Alcohol was sold in this particular venue and they had slightly overindulged. This caused to them to not only vomit in the aisles but also to become a bit loud and unruly.
This annoyed one gentleman who went over to them and asked them to pipe down a bit, as presumably, it was spoiling his enjoyment of the film! Big mistake! These women were not going to be told what to do, and apparently there was a fracas where the man ended up getting ‘glassed’!
The stewards promptly called the Police who swiftly turned up to arrest the three disorderly women, leading one off to the Police van in handcuffs! (Not quite the idea she had in mind, I suspect)!
The man and his wife arriving for the next showing waited patiently for order to be restored; vomit to be cleaned up, and blood wiped off of the seats!
I bet E L James had not envisioned her novels to have inspired this kind of scenario! (Actually it was probably a damn sight more exciting than the movie anyway)!
Something happened like this when my sister and her friend went to see The Avengers. There was this lady who was obviously drunk, sitting there with her two young kids. And she kept talking and being loud, so when people started asking her to quiet down she started shouting… Then the police were called and she was escorted out, and everyone got a free ticket to any Vue Cinema film!

I am just stunned that people would behave like that ate a cinema! Especially someone that is responsible for children! It was good that the Police responded quickly AND they all got a free ticket!

Wow! In the U.S. the worst that I’ve come up on was to tell a teeny bopper (someone else’s child, not mine) to hang up and put her cell phone away or go out to the lobby to talk with her friends.

I hate crisp crunchers as well. I also hate tall people that sit right in front of me (this is nearly everyone as I am so short)!

Hello, and thanks for stopping by. I am Judy, in my (very) early fifties and decided that life definitely gets more interesting as it goes on! I am a wife and a mum and have just finished University as a Registered Nurse, after having worked as an Associate Practitioner in the NHS. I am also a poet and the author of my debut book, 'Rhymes of the Times.' I love to laugh, and I love rhyming words too, so I joined the two together, and my book was born. I am currently working on another book in the series also. I am a prolific blogger and enjoy writing funny stories, anecdotes, and anything really that takes my fancy.
