Grrrrr
My dad has just dragged me into town to drop him off at the pub, I had my tripod and camera in the boot,
We have quite a nice church in our town centre next to the pub he was going in, it was dead quiet so I thought hmm il take a quick snap, So I jumped out the car flicked open my tripod and no longer had I switched the camera on I heard
" Male with the camera, please leave the area, no photos aloud! please leave! "
FFS I can understand in the current climate people being suspicious of pakis taking pictures of train stations in major cities, I would have thought a 20 year old lad in a car with quite a large camera and tripod taking a photo of a very senic church to be ok to be honest

I went to the Lambo garage in Edinburgh and it kept telling me' There is cctv in use and footage of you may be used against you in court. Please leave immediately'.
Half an hour later and it was still slabbering the same pish.

I took a few on a bridge over the M6 last night and the police rolled up in a van,
strangly they didnt bother me, they just pulled up next to me, opened their side sliding doors and started taking pictures themselves
