The PoliceSitting in my local pub late one night enjoying the landlord's flexible idea of what constitutes his licencing hours, a bunch of drunk blokes in raincoats burst in. Requesting to be served, one shouted at the barman "It's alright - we're not coppers!"
They were spitting images of Lt. Columbo to a man. The barman laughed them out of the pub.

Dumb Rookie...I'd been forewarned about a mobile speed trap near where I worked. As I drove home I was careful not to go over the limit as I went through. I then went over a bridge and round a corner where there was a gaggle of traffic cars and assorted bizzies. To my surprise, a constable stepped into the road and signalled me to stop. I wound down the window and the following exchange took place:
PC: "Excuse me sir, but do you know your fog lights are on?"
ME: "Errr, no they're not."
>pause<
PC: "OK, move on sir."
ME: "???????????????????????????????????"
The older officers by the roadside ruefully shook their heads with hands covering eyes as I drove off.
If it was a cartoon, there would have been a huge question mark hovering above my Mini all the way home.
