I think he bumped into Yellowjack yesterday morning, they are having a chinwag.
To be fair Milky' posts are pretty much to the point. Yellowjack strikes me as that nice but, er, talkative neighbour you always try to avoid.A meeting between Yellowjack and Derek Smith would be quite something to behold. Or not, depending on your perspective.

Just as a quick reminder
Didn't milky ask for this to be brought to court?
Weren't the police and supermarket keen to leave it as an apology ?
It's like a turkey booking a Xmas shopping slot
OP had to admit being in the wrong for the apology to be issuedDidn't milky ask for this to be brought to court?

I see many people on this thread now make sure they always get a receipt from self service. Since reading this thread I’ve also made changes to my supermarket visits;
When nicking stuff, I always leave by the correct lane so as not to arouse suspicion.
If a security guard stops me, I’m always polite and co-operative and usually get sent on my way with an apology.

Where did the bit about hitting with the frying pan come from? Was it something that came up at trial? Or was it discussed before?
It was something that was said in a statement which the Police accepted even at interview was not correct. A witness said the SG kicked me because I went towards him with a pan. But at the time of him kicking me I wasn't holding any form of pan (or anything else for that matter). As a witness the same chap said the same thing - but this time said it was a 6 pack of pans (no idea where that came from). He also said the security gaurd managed to kick them from my hands.
It's all clearly nonsense. Anyone who has reviewed the CCTV can see that. Even the Police accepted that and said "anyone can make a mistake". Unfortunately the solicitor who turned up didn't have the CCTV so didn't question this.
For what it's worth I don't think the bloke was intentionally lying. I think in his his head he has put 2 and 2 together an came up with an odd number. Similarly he said other things which were impossible. Like I hit the bloke when my partner was right next to me (she was a good 25ft away when I shoved him). I think you see something and your mind fills in the blanks.
If anyone is really that bothered I can post that part of the CCTV and you can make your own mind up. I'm currently trying to find a brief to go over it all and see if they think it's worth appealing. I'll make my choice after taking legal advice.

You only have 21 days to appeal. If you put the appeal in you can withdraw it if you need to.A witness said the SG kicked me because I went towards him with a pan.
