A police woman just touched me on the shoulder

And said "Are you ok?" It could have been a heartstopping moment but it was comfortable

No handcuffs were produced; no warrant.

I write about the police under my own name; so it seems reasonable to on nodding terms with them.

I have talked to people who think that is unreasonable. (and maybe a bit dangerous)

But I take the view that the ordinary officer has no real say in the big decisions. so, what the hell

Some people like handcuffs. Either way, I agree that it is a perfectly straightforward tale. Shame it makes no sense whatsoever, mind.

Erm, what?

JamieLeeCurtis · 04/02/2011 14:49

Gabby - what had happened to make her talk to you? You missed that bit out in your OP

MrsRichardHammond · 04/02/2011 14:50

I am trying really hard to see what was unreasonable or a bit dangerous or what but I take the view that the ordinary officer has no real say in the big decisions. so, what the hell - means but glad you are happy :)

It could have been a tricky moment because I saw the uniform before I saw the face. I was sitting down

Either way I would have written about it eventually. (J.Archer did his diary from a cell)

cheers "Gabby"

Maybe she IS Jeffery Archer?

JamieLeeCurtis · 04/02/2011 14:54

Gabby - tell us what happened

KurriKurri · 04/02/2011 14:55

what would you have written though Gabby?, - it's a very short story indeed.

Confused with the comparison to Jeffrey Archer, - have you committed perjury - is that why the police are hanging round?

As the line in the song says.

"oh the drugs don't work, they just make it worse"

gabby are you saying you would react differently to a male officer than you would towards a female one???

elaborate a little please.......

LaWeaselMys · 04/02/2011 14:58

I met Archer once. He was sleazy, and answered every question with 'I don't know anything about that' even a jokey question. About eurovision. Hmm

Thingumy · 04/02/2011 15:00
