Heather Mills received a warning from police recently,regarding her frequent use of the emergency number 999. Chief Superintendent Kevin Moore, who presides over the police precinct in question elaborated on the situation.
"We are having to spend a disproportionate amount of time on one particular person," he said in reported remarks that were confirmed by a spokeswoman for the force."We are duty-bound to respond, but clearly people who make lots of calls to the police run the risk of being treated as the little boy who cried wolf," he added.
"Officers who have attended previously to find there have been no grounds might not take any claims seriously, and that's the danger we face."
I love imagining that Heather was calling because she was lonely, or just needed some attention.
HEATHER: Hey.
OPERATOR: Hello? What's the emergency?
HEATHER: I woke up this morning. And tried to put on my jeans. But (bursts into tears) they don't fit! I think I'm having a fat day! Oh God...
OPERATOR: Dammit, is this Heather?
HEATHER: Look, Marcia, I know this isn't "technically" an emergency, but I just needed someone to talk to who isn't trying to divorce me, or jamming a camera in my face.
OPERATOR: Seriously, I'm hanging up now. Don't call back.
HEATHER: OK. I probably will call back, though.
OPERATOR: I know. *CLICK*

Absolutely love the conversation. Don't they have 900 numbers over there?

That skit was hilarious.
Still can't believe she's taking Paul for 50-something million.
Such a sad situation for him :-(
Later,
Tom
