That's me done - now where#s my pipe & slippers?
Well folks it had to happen eventually.
I've joined Motorwaycop and Trojan in the hallowed ranks of Narpo!
As of 0001hrs today I am once more a civvy.
A common mistake made when trying to come up with a totally foolproof design is to completely underestimate the innate ingenuity of fools.
The last thing I want to do is hurt you but it's still there on my list of options, so are you coming quietly.........?

That's it. The Job's F****d, you were the last bastion of proper policing (I don't include Motorway in that obviously, being Traffic. )

Congratulations. I have my NARPO card now. I even managed to get a free diary.
Now all that you have to do is think of ways to stop your wife spending the lump sum.
Best of luck with that!!
Having been off for a few months now it still feels strange, although the ability to be rude to other people without consequence is somewhat fulfilling.the sole advantage of power is that you can do more good.

I never joined NARPO, what's the point?

Live long enough to spend all of the money you put into your retirement and then keep taking theirs. I have managed to be retired longer than I was a cop so I certainly got my money and lots of theirs. Good luck and I don't want to appear stupid but what is NARPO?

Bill - it's the National Association of Retired Police Officers
Trojan, I was always a white capped black rat just like Motorwaycop!

SI VIS PACEM PARA BELLUM-Ex-Sheriff Martin Howe to Will Kane in "High Noon"
"It's a great life. You risk your skin catching killers and the juries turn them loose so they can come back and shoot at you again. If your honest , your poor your whole life. And , In the end , you wind up dying all alone on some dirty street. For what? For nothing. For a tin star."
Far from being a handicap to command, compassion is the measure of it. For unless one values the lives of his soldiers and is tormented by their ordeals , he is unfit to command.

Good job, old boy! Enjoy!
