A frustrated punter contacted Trading Standards to complain about a prostitute who refused to have sex with him.

Harrow Borough Council's trading standards received the call from the man after he was turned down by the woman, believed to have been from Eastern Europe.

He told officials that he had travelled in from a neighbouring borough and didn't think prostitutes should behave like that, reports the Harrow Times.

Councillor Susan Hall, leader of Harrow Council, said: "Prostitution may be the oldest profession in the world, but a complaint of this sort is a new one on us; the trading standards manual doesn't really cover it.

"I would like the gentleman involved to visit Harrow again, but perhaps this time he could enjoy some of our more wholesome pursuits - like our wonderful open parks, leisure centres and historic churches."

The man filled out a complaint form for trading standards and even gave them his address and contact details.
