Two Hairy Scary Police Officers. Hands on holster, Pull over “Buddy”. That sounded welcoming. Wrong.
“Hands on wheel” “Get outta the car”, Quite difficult doing both, at the same time. :smiley:
“Whats with the Kerb Crawling” !!
A Blighty term for seeking a Prostitute. Which wasn’t on the itinerary agenda.
“Sorry officer, we’re a little lost. And looking for directions to Tarpon Bay.

Well not exactly but near enuff. :smiley:
" So just a quick look at Tampa”. “That way Buddy.” “Just Speed Up a bit.”

I was living in Tampa in the 60s, graduated from King High School (Go Lions)
My girlfriend’s older brother was on the police force.
Moral of story: Now you know why I am such a fine, upstanding citizen. The law scared the “mischievous” right outta me.
Lucky I went looking for it later, and found it. :innocent:

I think you click on persons name but I tried that to PM you so you could PM back but it did not work .

Truth is I am no expert on states , etc or would not have wound up in Miami , lol but yes I have fun here but I have fun everywhere as not playing with a full deck .

.
What I do know is N.C is becoming a hot spot and people I know there love it but AGAIN avoid areas hurricanes can hit .

I read that Tom Green is popular in N.C so tells me the type of love and acceptance that magical state has to offer , I did stay there a week before moving to Miami as I drove from Albany and loved it

I watch BBC as have satellite and get all the channels but have to say never heard of that show had to look it up .

Whoops Apocalypse is a six-part 1982 television sitcom by Andrew Marshall and David Renwick, made by London Weekend Television for ITV.[1][2][3] Marshall and Renwick later reworked the concept as a 1986 film of the same name from ITC Entertainment, with almost completely different characters and plot.[1][4]

The British budget label Channel 5 Video released a compilation VHS cassette of all six episodes edited together into one 137-minute chunk in 1987.

Those were the best of times for Merritt Island across to Tarpon Spring - and south of that line. Sometimes memories are better than the real thing!
