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.

Been mistaken for a copper once...I was walking through the shopping centre in my town, wearing my sharp sixth-form suit, when i see a little kid (about 4 or 5, early school age) point at me and say "look mummy, Policeman!"
Fair play to him, but it was his mother who made the moment. She replied: "No, don't be silly, that's a security guard"
Also, plod can be plain daft. My missus was the victim of distraction burglary of an iPod recently by 'friends'. Upon realisation, she informs the police of who did it, what they stole and when, and so far they have done bugger all, useless bastards. Also, when my mum reported some chavs for criminal damage of a fence up the top of the road, complete with photos (yes she does read the Daily Mail), they took 10 days to even bother coming round, ane even when they did it was on a sunday morning at 9am. Ah well, the childish look of excitement on their faces when presented with a burned CD containing photos was priceless, obviously they were overjoyed at someone having done their work for them.
