was in woolies yesterday and bought the latest max power, got to the counter and the woman said are you 16, im like yeah nearley 18. so she asked for id and im like not got any on me, anyway she still served me just i think, but its not as if im still 16 when im 18 in april. and why does max power mag now have an age limit of 16, when i was 16 i always used to buy it without gettign asked for identity. its only got a few sware words and a few naked lady pictures in it

anyone else noticed this or had this problem

theres a new law that if you dont look over 21 we have to ask for id, its just made our jobs harder coz we have to put up with loads of abuse off chavs and the like. its a shame the goverment took away my right to bare arms.

:roll:
tom if you think getting asked when your only 18\'s bad i got asked for id for revs and i am 21. the easy way to get around this problem is to just carry your lisence around with you.

to lucky simon, we dont have an asda in scarborough nearest one to me is hull and i can think of worse places to shop than there e.g aldi/netto, only been in asda a few times and that was at the one in york.

and rick i think i will be carrying my id cards on me from now lol.
