Night duty

[planedriver]

A police officer, though scheduled for all-night duty at the station, was relieved of duty early and arrived home four hours ahead of schedule, at 2 in the morning. Not wanting to wake his wife, he undressed in the dark, crept into the bedroom and started to climb into bed.

 

Just then, his wife sleepily sat up and said, "Mike, dearest, would you go down to the all-night drug store in town and get me some aspirin? I've got a splitting headache."

 

"Sure, honey," he said, and feeling his way across the dark room, he got dressed and walked over to the drug store.

 

As he arrived, the pharmacist looked up in surprise, "Say," said the druggist, "I know you - aren't you a policeman? Senior Constable Fenwick, right?"

 

"Yeah, so?" said the officer.

 

"Well, why are you all dressed up in a pilots uniform?"

I resisted making further comment. Took me just the right amount of time to work it out too. Nev

It might account for that missing uniform a long time ago in your career Nev!!

 

 

[facthunter]

I can say that I was always keen to get out of my uniform, but never in those circunstances. You can't drink in uniform. Nev

Or, partake in other extra-caricular activities it would seem, without the chance of getting sprung.
