Wary Citizen 

Someone who will ring the police at the first sign of trouble. Usually a neighbour, will look out the window and watch for troublemakers. The wary citizen will see someone drop a receipt and call 999 wasting the emergency services time and the wary citizen calms down as soon as they arrive. The emergency services will leave and the wary citizen will feel proud that they have managed to look after their community. They are mostly pensioners living in the south of England with nothing else to do with their time.

wary whack 

Aka "tentative/trepidatious tap". Refers to the hasty and teeth-gritting "getting it over with" hand-slap that you give a metal door-handle prior to grasping it, to swiftly ground yourself and thus lessen the nasty wallop of a static-electricity shock that you'd otherwise get if you merely reached out timidly for the door-handle and caused a huge white spark to jump from "A" to "B".
I always perform the wary whack while running my errands around town during the dry winter months; the only problem is that my hand gets kinda numb and bruised after a while from all of that harsh pinging against the cold hard metal door-knobs and handles on the front doors of the assorted places of business that I have to go around to.

old bitch you wary 

Being suddenly wary of having referred to the recently deceased as a "bitch"
You're at the funeral of a woman you didn't much like. In fact, she was a real turd and you know it. Perhaps she was the nun who slapped your hands with a ruler when you were in Catholic school. As you walk past the casket you mumble to yourself "I'm glad you're dead, you old bitch" and you are. But suddenly you notice that people are looking at you. You may have said that a little too loudly. Or maybe they can just read lips, you really can't be sure. In that moment when you realize something may be amiss, you are officially old bitch you wary.
