KFC Fines Woman for Staying Too Long


Recommended Posts

FAST food fan Natalie Jackson was hit with a ?150 fine at KFC ? for staying too long gorging on a monster-sized ?family bucket?.

The trainee nurse and a pal plumped for FOURTEEN chicken pieces, SIX bags of fries and large CO:|S :| after driving to their local branch.

They spent an hour and a half scoffing the 5,456-calorie feast. Days later regular customer Natalie got the fine in the post for breaking the restaurant car park?s 75-minute limit.

The 24-year-old fumed yesterday: ?It?s disgusting. I spend a lot of money in there. Now I?m never going back.?

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.

The mega bucket, which busts the Health Department?s recommended 1,940-a-day calorie count for women, cost her ?13.16p.

Natalie vowed there was fat chance of her paying the ?150 ? insisting: ?It didn?t feel like I was in there all that long. We were hungry.?

Last night KFC said restaurant parking was contracted to private firm Civil Enforcement Ltd ? but promised to review Natalie?s case.

A spokesman said: ?A parking restriction was introduced to prevent non-KFC customers using the car park.

?The 75-minute time limit is designed to accommodate our customers who generally eat for about 30 minutes.?

Wow....

My best mate and I generally head into our local KFC and spend a good two hours in there. Never got a parking fine or anything. (we dont eat that much and we're not fat...skinny actually)

But seriously. A fraking mega bucket!!! Regardless, by the looks of her, she'll be back, she always comes back...... TO ANOTHER KFC

I'm willing to bet there was no friend, she ate all that chicken herself and was too ashamed to admit it. Thats why it took so long to eat it. Two people could finish a bucket like that in under an hour.

On the friend I call "Pics or it never happened"

    • I agree. I also think Phil stayed too long. They should definitely fire whoever thought all a console platform needed was Call of Duty, Elder Scrolls, and Fallout to survive. Asha and crew are still saying they need more Elder Scrolls and Fallout games. They simply don't get it.

    • Mozilla highlights Firefox Nova 2026 redesign and more upcoming features with new roadmap by Sayan Sen Last month Mozilla confirmed that Firefox was set to get a major redesign this year. Dubbed "Project Nova", it can already be tested and will roll out to all users later this year.The idea is to keep the browser competitive in a rapidly evolving internet landscape. As such the revamp focuses on improving privacy, usability, performance, accessibility, and customization. Key privacy features including the built-in VPN, private browsing mode, and Enhanced Tracking Protection, will be more visible and easier to manage, while users will have the option to disable AI features entirely through a dedicated kill switch. Additionally, the redesign promises faster page loading, the return of Compact mode, expanded personalization options, and stronger accessibility support. You can find the full details in the dedicated piece linked above. In a new blog post today the company once again reiterated on Nova and also emphasized other new and upcoming features like the settings revamp that is intended to make it easier for users to understand browser settings. In order to make it simpler for users to keep up with such features Mozilla today is launching Firefox roadmap. Hence enthusiasts and interested users will be able to check out what's cooking and also share feedback about the upcoming additions. Alongside the roadmap announcement, Mozilla also highlighted what's new in Firefox 152. One of the biggest additions is the arrival of Tab Groups on Android. The feature, which has already been helping desktop users organize large numbers of tabs, is now beginning to roll out on mobile. Users will be able to group related tabs together, assign names and colors to them, and return to them later. Mozilla says support for iOS will arrive later this year. Firefox 152 also introduces the aforementioned redesigned Settings experience. The company says the changes are meant to make controls easier to find and help users discover features they may not have previously known about. Existing preferences are not changing, though they are now better organized. Another notable addition is the new Blocked Tracker Widget, which provides a visual overview of Firefox's privacy protections by showing how many trackers have been blocked over time and the types of tracking activity the browser has stopped. Looking ahead, Mozilla revealed several upcoming roadmap features. They include customizable keyboard shortcuts, as well as enhanced PDF editing tools that will allow documents to be split, merged, and reorganized directly within Firefox. The company is also working on bringing Multi-Account Containers into the native Firefox experience thus removing the need for a separate extension. Meanwhile Firefox's built-in VPN is set to expand to mobile devices. Mozilla is also developing AI-powered features like Quick Answers, which can provide concise responses to voice queries, and Smart Window, its optional AI browsing experience that is now available without a waitlist. Finally, a new Power Saving Mode is in the works and will help reduce the impact of resource-heavy tabs on mobile devices in order to extend battery life. The video below summarizes the upcoming changes in an easy to understand format: You can find the announcement blog post here on Mozilla's official website.
    • Dead on arrival at that price. Like they missed the mark by multiple hundreds of dollars - this should actually undercut the Macbook Air at $899 if they want any sort of sales / further adoption of WoA
