You're Nicked!

I've changed the names of the individuals involved in this tale to protect their identity.

To set the scene:- It's a dull, dreary morning and Sue ... oooops "Doris" is watering the hanging baskets for the last time before going on holiday very early tomorrow morning.

A police car with two officers inside, drives slowly up the road looking in as they pass. The police car turns around and then pulls up alongside the curb. The officer driving gets out of the car and walks purposely towards "Doris".

Police Officer ... Good morning madam, would it be possible for me to use your toilet please?

Doris ... Of course officer, please do come in.

Police Officer ... Thank you.

They enter the house, but just as the police office turns towards the toilet door, Doris says:-

"This may seem a really strange request officer, but would it be possible for me to take a picture of your handcuffs?"

The police officer turns quizzically and asks "Why?"

Doris goes on to tell him about her addiction to this website called blipfoto.com and all the blip friends she has made.

Police Officer:- "There you go, but it'll have to be quick please" and he hands over the handcuffs.

Doris grabs them with a big smile on her face, then gets her camera, mirror, tripod and places them on the kitchen worktop. The police officer enters the toilet.

Doris is in heaven. She goes about setting which aperture she wants on the camera, when:--

"Oscar, Tango, Yankee, Delta ******" can be heard coming from the toilet.

The Police Officer rushes from the loo and asks Doris for the return of the handcuffs. What does she do, she hasn't taken a photograph yet? Being the obsessed blipper she is, she takes just one capture and hands the handcuffs back to the officer.

Police Officer ... "Thanks for the use of your toilet, but I'm sorry I have to leave immediately".

Doris ... "oh! ok" and thanks him for letting her take the picture.

Police Officer ... "You're very welcome".

The police officer returns to his vehicle and as he's about to drive away down the road he puts his head through the open window and says ...

"Bye mum, I hope you and dad have a lovely holiday"

Doris replies ... "Bye love, we'll see you soon and stay safe.
