Woman slapped with fine for taking too long to eat at KFC

ALL FOR THE CHICKEN: Natalie Jackson had ordered a huge family bucket, the fine is £150.






A British woman was left dumfounded when she was hit with a 150 pound fine for taking too long to eat at fast food giant KFC.

A regular at KFC, Natalie Jackson had ordered a huge family bucket, which contained 14 chicken pieces, 6 French fry bags and large cokes.

Jackson and a pal took an hour to scoff the 5,456-calorie feast.

Days later Jackson was fined for breaking KFC’s 75-minute car parking limit.

“It’s disgusting. I spend a lot of money in there. Now I’m never going back,” The Sun quoted Jackson, as saying.

“It didn’t feel like I was in there all that long. We were hungry,” Jackson added.

Natalie — who eats at KFC three times a week — complained to restaurant bosses that she was unaware of signs warning of the time limit in Huddersfield, West Yorks.

Following the case, KFC has said that restaurant parking was contracted to private firm Civil Enforcement Ltd — but promised to review Natalie’s case.

“A parking restriction was introduced to prevent non-KFC customers using the car park,” a spokesman for KFC said.

“The 75-minute time limit is designed to accommodate our customers who generally eat for about 30 minutes,” the spokesman added.

Wife changed online profile to single, killed by hubby

OUTRAGEOUS HUSBAND: The woman changed her profile status to single only to get killed.

A man has been sentenced to life imprisonment for killing his wife over a posting she made on the social networking site Facebook.

Wayne Forrester, 34, was very upset to find that his wife Emma, 34, had changed her online profile to “single”, just days after he had moved out, said police.

He drove her home in Croydon, south London, and stabbed her with a kitchen knife and a meat cleaver on 18 February, revealed the sources.

Forrester, who pleaded guilty to murder, was ordered to serve a minimum term of 14 years.

"You committed a terrible act. There is no possible excuse or justification. This is a tragic killing and what you have done has caused untold anguish," the BBC quoted Judge Brian Barker, the Common Serjeant of London, as telling him.

Forrester, an HGV driver, was drunk and high on cocaine when he attacked his wife in the early hours as she slept. He beat her, tore out clumps of her hair, and repeatedly stabbed her in the head and neck.

The screams of the mother of two awoke neighbours, who called the police after finding Forrester sitting outside the house covered in blood.

The court heard Forrester thought that Emma was having an affair, and had threatened to kill her.

The couple’s 15-year marriage was said to be a "volatile" one.
