During the Christmas shopping rush in London, the interesting story was reported of a tramp who, apparently though had no fault of his own, found himself locked in a well - known chain store late on Christmas Eve. No doubt the store was crowded with last - minute Christmas shoppers and the staff who were dead beat and longing to get home. Probably all the proper security checks were made before the store was locked and they left to enjoy the three - day holiday untroubled by customers desperate to get last - minute Christmas presents.
However ridiculous that may be, our tramp found himself alone in the store and decided to make the best of it. There was food, drink, bedding and camping equipment, of which he made good use. There must also have been television sets and radios. Though it was not reported if he took advantages of these facilities, when the shop reopened he was discovered in bed with a large number of empty bottles beside him. He seemed to have been a man of good humor as indeed tramps are very common.
Everyone else was enjoying Christmas, so he saw no good reason why he should not do the same. He yielded himself cheerfully, and was taken by the police. Perhaps he had had a better Christmas than usual. He was sent to prison for seven days. The judge awarded no compensation to the chain store for the food and drink our tramps had consumed. They had, in his opinion, already received valuable free publicity from the story revealed in the newspaper and on television. Perhaps the judge had had a good Christmas, too.
The tramp was locked in the store______.
