Crime - part deux.

I was told a few times that I looked like an undercover cop trying to trap petty criminals

I was filling up in a garage one day and I was approached by a guy who said are you CID, no I said, are you sure he said, I am certain I said, he then said I have got some posh watches to sell are you interested, I showed him my Rolex Submariner and he walked off sulking

 

I wouldn't know if anyone was a mugger which is why I was always on alert, I am right handed but always carried my briefcase in my left hand

 

I have a Rolex, my Dad bought it for me in Paris for the equivalent of about £5 back in the late eighties.

Must say, I'm surprised they're so badly made, the gold has peeled away in places. I thought Rolex were supposed to be better than that.

/ Fake watch still works 30+ years later...

 

Standard issue I'm sure Duggie. Did it have a pellet in it that did this...

I had one of those from Turkey

As soon as I could afford a real one I bought mine, had it valued the other day when I had it cleaned and polished, it is now worth twice what I paid for it

 

Don't be confusing London with the rest of the country bro

It's not the same where I live.

 

Outside of London has thier own problems.

Like Swans blocking roads and that.

 

Somebody had a few gnomes stolen from their garden in my village. That was big news tbh.

 

Swans can be effing vicious. Although Britain's native swans aren't nearly as nasty as the Australian Black swans. There is a lake at the Uni I went to that had some and people were always getting attacked by the black swans. Never do any serious harm, but scare the crap out of you.

 

Ill **** a Swan up bruv.

Pussies

 

Dont piss on a swans residence then.

Id still **** that Swan up tho.

One chop to the neck

 

A man in his eighties has been banned from driving after police spotted him driving his car at 10mph on a road with a 60mph limit.

I bought a ‘Rolex’ off a bloke in a pub for £20 once, eventually left it at my mate’s gaff in Spain. When the battery ran down, he took it to the jewellers, who had to look twice to twig it was a snide…

 

That's a story to tell your grandchildren one day Archie.

 

I was planning to hand the watch on to them.

 

Rolex to my knowledge do not do battery wristwatches

 

Tell them it was a special to be used on space missions

 

Rolex Oyster Perpetual does, apparently. That's it, though.
