[03:08.75]He then found some Bath Oliver biscuits and three bottles of champagne. [03:15.98]After a while he began to feel sleepy [03:21.92]and decided that he would lie down and digest his meal in comfort [03:29.05]He was arrested the next morning fast asleep upstairs in the spare bedroom.

[05:24.00]Considerably disheartened by this [05:28.79]the gang leader reduced his demandfirst to 500 then to 50 and ultimately to50 pens [05:42.29]By this stage the cashier could barely control herself for laughter. [05:49.42]Then one of the men jumped over the counter and fell awkwardly on the floor [05:57.59]clutching at his ankle [06:01.30]The other two made their getaway [06:06.01]but got trapped in the revolving doors for a second time [06:13.14]desperately pushing the wrong way.
