The PRS (Performing Rights Society), which clearly isn’t really that busy, says it’s logged 250 incidents of Kwik-Fit employees playing their radios too loud since 2005.

The PRS is seeking a massive £200,000 in compensation for this, so you might want to turn down your headphones a bit on the way home tonight, lest you be made an example of.
