A few silly one's ....
- Squad Car 0 - Concrete Jungle 1 - send reinforcements !
- "When I said ... retrace their steps, I didn't mean literally !"
- "I said get a remold set, not mold the set !"
- "Quick Street not quick set"
- The stolen unit was found 'gone to ground' .... the case is now closed, signed, sealed, delivered ..."
- "Rod, did you say "Send reinforcements" or
- News : Finally, an unlucky traffic officer on an intensive driving course, found themselves the butt of a few jokes, when they mistook the off ramp ... and their car screeded to a stop ...."
[groan to all of them really ...sorry !]

“I told you the softly-softly approach wouldn’t work!”

“Jeeze Mac, how heavy are you?”.

“That volcanic ash is getting ridiculous”.

Come on Grabs! It'll soon be Christmas mate :D

Okay, I’ll be the fill-in act - as bronze medallist... :P

I was down the doctors the other day for a full well-man health inspection and the doctor says to me "I can see a lettuce leaf sticking out of your back passage Mr Big Tone"

So I says to him "Ah, that's only the tip of the iceberg".

:coat:
