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.

Who says they don't look after their own?Years ago I was a uniformed security guard. I nipped off site (as you do) and drove a few miles to the nearest cash point for a bit of beer money for after the end of the shift.
Anyway, nobody in site as I start back, so I FLAW IT! I'm talking 75mph in a 30mph zone. The road ahead was completely clear, but I look in my mirror and there's a jam sandwich behind me, lights flashing. Fucksocks, I think - but it's a fair cop.
Anyway, they pull alongside, and both of them look over - and they see the security guard uniform. Suddenly they give me a thumbs up, the blue lights go off, and they drop back, leaving me STILL doing 75mph in the 30 zone but with a clear road behind as well as ahead!
Still don't know where they came from, but boy am I glad they look after the people they think are "their own"!
