I reckon the police should set up a permanent base inside the Lifeguard shack or nearby. They'd be able to respond more quickly plus the lifeguards can focus on the sea and beach instead of thieves and perverts etc

But the credit card company would only issue a new card to his home address, Canada, and he was in the UK and was going on to Spain for a holiday, thank goodness for American Express they would issue a new card to bank in Birmingham, still 25 miles to travel to pick it up but at least a life line to still go on holiday

You do realize that most police in Australia don't know how to use handcuffs BECAUSE they rely on lifeguards or passerby to make arrests for them?

I hate it when people steal! Where I work, people will randomly steal stuff. It's not like they need to steal, for them it's a thrill. What they fail to realize is, they may not get caught right away, but by the time they do, they face felony charges and spend YEARS in jail! There are cameras pretty much everywhere, and there are deliberately people watching those cameras but not apprehending the thieves. They're building cases against those people, which unfortunately takes time. A few weeks ago, a couple girls came into my store, and I noticed them pretty quickly because they weren't wearing coats or jackets. At one point, one of them takes a $70 coat off the rack and puts it on. Ok, no big deal, people try on coats all the time before they decide if they want to buy them. Then, the two girls are walking around the store, acting suspiciously. Then they decided to complain that people were watching them. The second of the two girls decide to put on a coat too, and they decided not to pay for them! Not surprising in the least. Go to the store, act suspicious, then complain that you're being watched, just to prove exactly WHY you're being watched! I'm that person who usually pays people no mind, but if you've caught MY attention, congratulations! You've won the dumbest prize ever!
