My son (34) had to stay overnight in Boston (UK) and booked a room at pub. He was sitting in the bar minding his own business, when a woman, who was obviously a regular, came up to him and in introduced herself as an off-duty policewoman. 'I want you to be honest with me' she said. 'What are you doing here?' George told her, and she said, 'No, why are you really here? Do you have any criminal convictions? Why have you come here all the way from Liverpool?' (He's never been to Liverpool in his life!) And so the conversation continued. He has dreadlocks, tattoos and piercings, so presumably she was making some sort of judgement based on that. There were UKIP banners all over the pub, so I suppose he should have expected strangers wouldn't be welcome - but needless to say, he won't be staying there again!
Wonder what the weird woman would say if I walked in wearing an "VOTE FOR GNOMES PARTY" t-shirt & started handing out leaflets saying if we win election then every household will have to have minimum 4 gnomes in their gardens.
