I think I would be particularly well-suited to the task. Also, do you get to pin down anybody you want, or only the debtor? So where does one apply for this private bailiff job?

Where else can I read -- preferably without a mouthful of coffee, next time -- anything like, "Dean spent three months in jail earlier this year when he was caught urinating in public while celebrating getting a job as a potato collector on a local farm." The UK is broken in ways that most USians -- and, I'm betting, Texans in particular -- have real trouble understanding, and they're flailing around, trying to nanny their way out of it. Absent some combination of Mary Poppins and Rambo running things, they're not going to get it. Thanks for the pointer.
