He'll have to eat some humble pie :frown:

He'll be doing thyme.

What a pudding

Apparently he needs mental help, but hasn't yet said relating to what.

The best bit here is that he had some pretty strong stuff to say on the riots :pierre:

So it's ok when middle-class people steal stuff, eh...?

(I'd imagine he was shoplifting out of a desire to get one over on the supermarket/mild kleptomania and not actual economic need, but the hypocrisy point still stands.)

He just said he was going to seek help... Maybe he just meant something like a friend with a big coat.

What does the apology mean?

MP says something... probably ********d and forced to say sorry... they say sorry
Jeremy Clarkson says something, complaints to BBC, he probably gets bolluck*d then aplogises .. :Y

I was reading on the bbc news today about how wealthy people stealing small value items is often a sign of a more serious underlying problem. It's not about getting free cheese and wine.

According to the man himself: On one occasion I paid £180 for three crates of champagne and at the same time nicked £4 of stuff - how ridiculous and how stupid”.

I reckon he needs help to sort out whatever is causing him to spontaneously steal things.

I see your point.

Here you have a supposed food and drinks expert purchasing champagne at only £60 a case. It must have been like fizzy vinegar...

The man is clearly a few chips short of a fish supper.

If he was getting the champagne wholesale (likely if he's buying three crates of it) to sell in his restaurants then he's probably going to be getting a considerable discount.

... or maybe he is just a fat, greedy James Blunt who slobs about the house drinking cheap fizz before going out and taxing himself a bit of cheddar to soak it all up.

Maybe he just misplaiced his wallet?

I'm racking my brains for more food related robbery puns for this thread but nothing else I can think of cuts the mustard.
