Title: Fast food police: Caribbean takeaway closed down for opening too close to school
Post by: Barman on April 21, 2009, 05:19:27 AM

The hit squad had prepared their raid long in advance.

At 10am eight police officers, some in anti-stab vests, joined three council employees on the doorstep of the Bamboo Joint takeaway.

Their mission? To stamp out the practice of selling jerk chicken within 400 metres of a secondary school.

I expect the shop was mainly selling "salad" to the kids.

Hi All

A few years ago I might have thought that this was a belated April Fool joke.  .  .  But these days nothing surprises me anymore.    What next, and please don't answer that in case somebody gets an new idea from it in Whitehall. 

Hatefull Bastards the lot of 'em  cussing:

Welcome Daw.

You cannot have a takeaway within 400 metres of a school ~ when did that piece of legislation slip though?

Utter, utter nonsense.

Bunch of twats ~ the same local authority MUST have passed the premises to sell take away food in the first place! Every commercial premises has to have a grading issued by the local council and if it is to sell food it must be classified Class A.

The problem seems to be that the council were afraid they would sell it to Class A.

But seriously you don't see many obese Jamaicans around do you. (Big fat Mommas excepted of course but that is normal)

Cool! ~ I like Hindu food. They are vegetarian of course but make marvelous curries and their pasties are to die for.
I was once invited to a Hindu wedding ~ It lasted all day!!! eeek:

The reception and the wedding seemed to take place at the same time and only toward the end of the event is the bride produced and "presented" to the husband. Meanwhile everyone just mills around talking and eating as the two fathers go through a ritual "public" bartering with a priest as a sort of umpire. When the deal is done the father of the groom calls his son forward, the father of the bride hands the girl over to the father of the groom who then gives her to his son.
I was fascinated by the whole thing and my friend who had invited me (Uncle of the bride in fact) asked his twin daughters (both lovely creatures aged about 16/17 wearing gold saris) to help by translating for me and generally make sure I was kept stacked up with food and information about what was happening. These two lovelies spoke with London Accents having been born and bred in North London and made sure I got a good education into many of the customs that the ceremony involved. When I told them that all the formalities were very impressive but I was somewhat disturbed by this "selling" of the bride from one family to another and that I was too western to accept an "arranged marriage" as a concept they laughed until they cried. They then kindly explained that this ceremony was to keep the "Old folks happy" and that "the Bride and Groom had been screwing one another for two years".
All in all an eye opening day.
