The family abandoned Wrexham and moved to Nottingham... @Dry Nelson Ray The thought that I could have been born and grown up as a Wrexham supporter:rollonfloorlaughing:

It does show how strict times were by then, these days police officers can do their shopping whilst on duty. I have witnessed police officers consuming alcohol while responding, or rather neglecting to respond, to calls from dispatch. My local McDonald's is usually full of police vans when passing, at any time of the day.

I know they serve a difficult job and most do try to help, yet there is an element of idleness these days.

The tweet sharing the story of Edward, it's interesting, and I wouldn't like for him to have hung around at Wrexham for obvious reasons. I think the smart choice of leaving was made. :D

Shouldn't the officers just refuse kindly and say they were on duty? Just saying.

Did the officers face any fines or disciplinary actions? It seems a bit unfair. Imagine if the officers were doing this as a con to gain money. I’m not suggesting this was the case, but it could happen.

Was your relative able to appeal? The issue was with the thirsty police officers, not the fact that he was served. It might have been a hot day, like today. 😅
