Cinnamon Posted February 9, 2010 Share Posted February 9, 2010 I don't know if any of you are familiar with IMMD,but it is a lovely site where people put silly little things that have happened in their life,which made their day. You can always find something sweet,funny or inspiring on there Thought I would start something similar on here so............................. I have just heard that a Police officer of my acquaintance,who was a complete pain when he policed Henley at the start of his career,has been jailed for 4 years for corruption.

patsylabrador Posted February 9, 2010 Share Posted February 9, 2010 If you're talking about Ali Dizaei then I totally agree. Best thing for the Met in a long time. A corrupt and nasty man. I thought he was bound to get away with it all, yet again - as you say, a little moment of win. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chucky Mama Posted February 9, 2010 Share Posted February 9, 2010 If you're talking about Ali Dizaei then I totally agree. Best thing for the Met in a long time. Horrible little man - I really felt for the poor victim he must have felt very isolated. Thank goodness justice prevailed. He could have an 'interesting' time in prison Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Old Speckled Hen Posted February 9, 2010 Share Posted February 9, 2010 What is The National Association of Black Police Officers? Is there a White association or a Christian association? What happened to the police being just The Police? Sorry mods ............. I remember Andrew Marr's interview with this horrid man. Anyway, My daughter just won a very coveted role at Drama school and I am over the moon. She is a real tomboy but is playing Juliet Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

patsylabrador Posted February 9, 2010 Share Posted February 9, 2010 It makes my day when i hear from my son in afghanistan. The signal is often rubbish and he's often grumpy but it's nice to hear him. I know that at that point he's safe. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cinnamon Posted February 10, 2010 Author Share Posted February 10, 2010 Just found this on the IMMD site - brilliant As I was walking into a convenience store, I held the door for a middle aged woman who was walking up. She said ” Don’t hold the door because I’m a woman!”. I responded with “It’s because you’re old.” The look on her face and the laughing clerk made my day.

She said ” Don’t hold the door because I’m a woman!”. I responded with “It’s because you’re old.” The look on her face and the laughing clerk made my day. That reminds me of a story I heard a long time ago. The person relating the story was apparently in a supermarket, dashing through to collect a couple of essentials on the way home. Given his haste and the paucity of his basket, he joined the queue for the "10 items or fewer" checkout*. However, he quickly noticed the person in front had a trolley overflowing with items, so politely coughed and drew the latter's notice to the "number of items" sign. "Yes, yes, yes!", declared the latter crossly. "I can read." "I'm glad to hear it," said our raconteur, "but can you count?" *Yes, I know it usually says "10 items or less", but this is my one and only chance to publicly stamp my grammatically correct foot, so don't spoil it for me.....

meezers Posted February 10, 2010 Share Posted February 10, 2010 I've got one that happened last week. My friend and I order our potatoes from a young lad at the local farm. He knows us well enough, so when my friend phoned him to order the last lot she greeted him with ' hi, got any spuds to spare?' after a long pause an elderly voice said ' I think I've a few in the cupboard, whereabouts are you? I can post you a few if you're desperate' She was mortified to have dialled the wrong number, but the way the old guy answered her made my day Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chickenNutter Posted February 10, 2010 Share Posted February 10, 2010 Yes, I know it usually says "10 items or less", but this is my one and only chance to publicly stamp my grammatically correct foot, so don't spoil it for me..... Stamp away Major, I also have a grammatically correct foot. " Compared to" is the phrase that makes my grammatically-correct foot throb.
