Next day our local collections manager, who was a retired Chief Inspector and freemason (so in those days not only immune from everything but still operating almost like he was still in uniform LOL) pulls me aside to tell me the local scuffers had been on the phone to him after tracing my company car registration to ask WTF was I up to....turns out yer man was a long-retired but once famous West Indian boxer who ran a knocking shop up the Cowley Road and was involved in a few other dodgy deals to boot....the crutches were because he was in the acute stages of syphilis.

That same retired CI also told me a story about a bloke they'd found dead in a pigpen with his trousers round his ankles, but thats for another day...

Anyway, I digress.....

Well there was the time when I used to work in IT and got wired up for a police trap in a motorway service station against two major thieves who had propositioned me on the subject of a very large quantity of warehoused PC kit? Squad of plain clothes, video van, the whole nine yards...I thought it was very exciting til they started to brief me on what to do if the perps pulled a weapon, and the position to adopt if the police had to ram any vehicle I was travelling in......LMBO I've got a million stories mate!
