tarboat's photos with the keyword: boots do not want people taking photographs

Having left security officer one to call the police it wasn't long before I became aware of a security emblazoned 4wd vehicle tracking me from inside the perimeter of the Boots factory at Beeston, Nottingham. Very soon it stopped and I was faced with this guy who said he was the head of security. He informed me that photographing the site was illegal and demanded to know why I was doing so. He did not wish to know that photography from a public place was perfectly lawful. When I took this shot he was extremely unhappy and said that it was illegal because he had not given permission for his photo to be taken. He said he would call the police. I never saw any police but he did keep me under surveillance even when I was walking away on the far side of the Beeston Canal. I am sure that the many CCTV cameras around the Boots site recorded images of my good self, but funnily enough I don't remember Boots UK Limited asking my permission either. ;-)
