Chastised
I got wrong off a policeman yesterday.
Apparently Trinity Street is one way, and it applies to cyclists as well as cars, and if you’re caught going the wrong way, you have to pay a £30 fine.
I pleaded ignorance, and he let me off, although I had to walk my bike the rest of the way to Sidney Street, feeling very sheepish.

If only they’d get all the students that consider it their right to cycle on my toes.

And all the cyclists who cycle over the Green Dragon footbridge.

Is “got wrong” a northern phrase? Never heard it before.

Sounds vaguely Northern to me.

It’s North-Eastern. It’s certainly a Wearside thing to say, anyway. I don’t know if they say it in the rest of the North East.
