While in Grimsby today Pa popped into Asda and was stopped by one of the older assistants who stand at the entrance handing out baskets and expressing a willingness to help.
"I remember you, Mr. Turner."
"Do you?" he asked wondering what was coming next.
"I was up before you in court and you were going to send me to prison. I've never been so scared in my life. Then you decided that you would give me a final chance, and said that if you ever saw me in court again I'd certainly go down. I've never been in trouble since. And my children have done well, gone into the forces and they've never been in trouble either."
Nice to know that you have done some good.
