She tripped over a kerb in the dark !!!! If she's too stupid to know that all petrol stations have kerbs of some sort or another & too stupid to switch on her torch when it's dark then she shouldn't really be a police officer should she!

Surely such rubbish would have a much more detailed exposure in the Mail?

Triangular, square, oblong? What an uncaring world we live in, everyone knows circular flap jacks have no corners so are safer to throw.

Hang on though, are we back to bad education?

They aren't for throwing, they are for eating, anyone throwing the damned thing should be expelled leaving the school safe for our tender loved ones.

In case anyone is interested, I have now created the following risk assessments, all available for a small charge :-

Police tripping over your doorstep whilst answering a burglary
Police scuffing the tyres of their car whilst turning into your drive
Police wetting themselves by having a cup of tea in your home
Police gaining weight by having a biscuit/cake with the aforementioned cup of tea

Currently working on Police and acne attacks, Police and selling juicy gossip to newspapers and Police waiting until the problem is over before showing up
