Everyone was watching and muttering but doing nothing. Fuelled by a few 2 4 1 cocktails, I decided to step in and went over to calm the situation....and nearly got arrested for obstructing the police. The two young lads were pickpockets and the thugs were undercover police who didnt take too kindly to me steaming in with my best Manc "what the ****s going on here you big bullys" tirade. But at least I tried to do the right thing

Aww Annie, that's very unfortunate/funny. At least you did the decent thing and attempted to help, rather than do nothing.
