Those who've been here will know that Poggle Wood is in a little
cul-de-sac. This often means cars drive down, realise that the 'dead
end' sign was there for a reason, then either try to reverse out or do
a 3/5/7 point turn at the end...

A police car was parked over the road whilst they took a statement
from a neighbour who'd witnessed a robbery or summat. While there a
WPC (a right babe too, if you'll s'cuze the sexism) walked over and
was looking at my GS. I was just taking Max out for his morning run
so said hello an all that. We ended up having quite a good chat when
she mentioned that she'd seen a similar one, but purple. Ah, that's
mine too (Grumble is currently having the finishing touches to the
auto conversion done around at Warrens). Anyway, carried on chatting.

Her colleague eventually came out and got in the car. Drove down to
the end of the road and got in a right tangle trying to turn it
around. Was on for at least a 9 point turn, crunching the gears and
all sorts (no Roadcraft here).

Why's he having such a hard time turning such a small car around? I
enquired, I can turn the purple one around in a clean 3.

Oh, she replied, that's because he's a f***ing idiot.

Mother must have got an odd one out - IME they'll do anything to cover each
other's backsides when incompetency arises

I reckon that's true for most professions really (I used to work in
the NHS and was alarmed at how so called 'Consultants' covered each
other even when claiming day was night).

I've had quite a few many dealings with Sheffield plod over the years
and have to say (having grown up aroud Sarf Lundun), they're not a bad
bunch. This one was, together with being a babe, particularly human
and very down to earth!

I've put her on my list (just below Kylie) of people to bear in mind
if things don't work out with Charlotte... :)

Yeah but if there weren't incompetents amoungst any group in society then
that would mean it was an elite race situation and not really a place I
think any one wants to go these days. IMHO.
