illegal cab

Bury, England

I was taking pictures of this weird yellow child-cabriolet-mobile when a lady of the mall staff came up and asked what I was doing. She said it was forbidden to take pictures in the mall and the discussion soon became weird. She asked why I was taking pictures and I said "I'm taking pictures for an evening class in photography", "Yes, but why are you taking pictures", "As I said, for a class", "Yes, but why are you taking pictures". I went on to explain how a school works, that a teacher gave you assignments and that later you got grades on the pictures. She suddenly realized I was mocking her by describing what a school was and went silent for a short moment. Then she said that it was okay for me to take pictures, but only a few more. She repeated that only a little few more was okay, then I had to stop. I left and thereafter took no more pictures in the mall. I guess she was scared I'd hijack the cabrioletmobile and crash it into the nearest foodstand causing mayhem and destruction.

Just admit it, you had intended on crashing that car into a food stand to cause mayhem. :)
