| What do you think of those new cardboard policemen? |

In the picture it appears that the Cardboard Cop is blocking access to a fire extinguisher. Wonder what H&S would think about that? :scratch: Joe |
| Bluechip:
Maybe only a cardboard fire-extinguisher ??? :palm: Dave |

We have several officers known as "PC Flat" attached to the roads policing unit here in the IOM. They stand (very still!) at the side of the road, clad in hi-viz, with laser speed-gun in hand, sometimes for days on end. They're usually deployed at accident blackspots and do have some deterrent effect, but they also exploit human weakness because - sometimes - not far afterwards, when drivers think "oh, that was a con, I can press on now" there will be a real bobby with a real radar gun issuing real speeding tickets..... They weren't off-the-shelf, they're actual recognisable local officers! pic here |

I think that cardboard cut out Rozzer would be very effective warning indeed; I bet salty, fatty, crisp sales have taken a right dive, with a big increase in the wellbeing of the shop customers. The subliminal message is clearly "Eating this crap turns you into a grumpy looking middle aged fat dwarf". Never seen one round here ... too many thrifty folks with woodburning stoves in these hills. Eug |
| Bluechip:
Eug. Probably better off scoffing the crisps ... wood-burning chucks out much the same carcinogens as tobacco. Some Scandinavian research is producing data that is somewhat alarming apparently. They had gas analysers in homes with such stoves and didn't like the results. Dave. |
