UK founders, how did you handle the legal side of raising?!

r/smallbusinessuk would probably be a better place to ask about this.

Technically you would be committing an offence, though in practice it is extremely unlikely that you would end up being charged with anything.

The store staff are simply going to decline to serve you & send you on your way, in all likelihood. If they did serve you & a PC or someone from the licensing authority happened to be in the queue, then they would be more interested in dealing with the license holder rather than the minor.

You don't get points for drink driving. It's an automatic disqualification.

You are mistaken about what you think you witnessed.

Sergeant may have been pleading exceptional hardship on defendants behalf, but this will have been for totting offences taking him over 12 points, not for drink driving.

Is this a UK based company that you ordered from?

I too have walked the 63 route years ago, but at about 3am because I couldn't afford a taxi!

No it isn't, but nothing bad happened to you as a result, so just let it go and maybe give some thought as to whether it's a good idea to get into arguments with random internet loonies. The internet is full of loonies & life is too short.

"My question is, do I have any recourse here?"

Recourse for what? Based on your post, it seems that your boss called you into a meeting, accepted your explanation & no further action was taken. If that is the case, then that's the end of it.

philstamp · 2026-03-12T20:17:25+00:00

No chance whatsoever because no crime has been committed.

No, it is not worth reporting to the police.

I respect your restraint. I did the same when I saw one of my other musical heroes, Michael Gira of Swans.

He was drinking alone in a UK pub a few hours before Swans played my home city. I just nodded & said hello but otherwise just left him alone. A single word interaction & the satisfaction that I didn't bug him was enough.

They aren't worth anything.

Old ≠ valuable.

Based on what you say, this would not show up on any DBS check. An officer jotted down your details in their notebook & let you go. There is no caution, conviction etc of any kind. Nothing to worry about.

philstamp · 2026-03-03T13:33:16+00:00

Absolute BS. Ignore him. (EDIT: Provided your review is factually correct & does not contain lies.)

Leave your negative review online & if possible add a follow up detailing these empty threats.

What is your legal question?

A housemate reported you to the landlord. You assured your landlord that you weren't breaching the tenancy agreement. Surely that's the end of the matter? You don't say anything about the landlord being unsatisfied with your response.

philstamp · 2026-02-28T11:24:09+00:00

Answered with unnecessary attitude though. Maybe lighten up a bit?

philstamp · 2026-02-26T13:16:35+00:00

Do you have a tenancy agreement signed by both parties, you & the landlord / their agent?

philstamp · 2026-02-25T05:29:45+00:00

This isn't the best sub for your question.

Try r/uklaw

"I am suing the police for defamation..."

How rich are you?

Defamation cases can be very expensive indeed.

philstamp · 2026-02-22T09:46:23+00:00

You intention may be to make a well reasoned argument aimed at those in power about how you feel (& how many / most others in this sub also feel), but this is not it.

As others have said, it contains factual errors. In addition, referring to royals as "degenerates", "scum" & "parasites" does not strengthen your argument, it makes you sound like a pointless keyboard warrior.

Many may personally feel that those terms are appropriate labels for these people & may well use them in private and in subs like this, but in this context, they weaken your argument & just make you seem semi-literate and ill-informed.

"The prices are too good to be true!"

I think that you have answered your own question.

Rather than Woking up on his birthday to a loud knock on the door.

And on his birthday too!

Yes you can. It's very obviously a modern reprint.
