"COME DINE WITH ME ! (NOT!)

        " Heroin Addict with a Appetite ???"

  A shoplifter was recently caught with 27 tins of corned beef stuffed down  his trousers.

   The shoplifter, 25, pleaded guilty of stealing 27 tins of corned beef, £56 worth of cheese and tins of salmon from Tesco - as well as a public order offence.

   Swansea magistrates ' court heard that the shoplifter was a heroin addict and that whilst on bail for these offences stole 15 packs of meat from another supermarket.

   The court was told that drug use was the root cause of his crimes ( either that or he'd been chosen to appear in "come dine with me" dessert would be interesting !) Joking aside the sad fact is that he could easily sell these items to raise enough cash for a couple of bags of smack.He had returned to Swansea after living in Birmingham and getting clean , once back in Swansea I  suppose he reverted back to what he knew and mixing with the same people who got him on the gear in the first place.

   He had a good appetite for the smack 2 bags a day and as much corned beef you could swing a cat at ! For his troubles he received an eight-month prison sentence. Hopefully the poor lad will get some help to get him off the gear during his time in prison. I don't hold much hope there though apparently it's even easier to purchase on the inside.

   God help the poor lad he'll probably end up as just another dead statistic at the hands of heroin , if he hasn't already !
