PSNI gets post of the day. He's too modest, so i'll clap him on the back on our behalf.

FYI, if you move to a 'smart' meter electricity plan, you CAN'T move back to a non-smart plan.

A, it's worth it for the last 30 sec with his sgt.

Sgt: "I got your evaluation in the car"
Cop: "You done with it?"
Sgt: "Not now!"

BEST COMEBACK RESPONSE OF THE YEAR

If you ever testify in court, you might wish you could have been as sharp as this policeman. He was being cross-examined by a defense attorney during a felony trial. The lawyer was trying to undermine the policeman's credibility..

Q: 'Officer -- did you see my client fleeing the scene?
A: 'No sir. But I subsequently observed a person matching the description of the offender, running several blocks away.'
Q: 'Officer -- who provided this description?'
A: 'The officer who responded to the scene.'
Q: 'A fellow officer provided the description of this so-called offender. Do you trust your fellow officers?'
A: 'Yes, sir. With my life.
Q: 'With your life? Let me ask you this then officer. Do you have a room where you change your clothes in preparation for your daily duties?'
A: 'Yes sir, we do!'
Q: 'And do you have a locker in the room?'
A: 'Yes sir, I do.'
Q: 'And do you have a lock on your locker?'
A: 'Yes sir.'
Q: 'Now why is it, officer, if you trust your fellow officers with your life, you find it necessary to lock your locker in a room you share with these same officers?'
A: 'You see, sir - we share the building with the court complex, and sometimes lawyers have been known to walk through that room.'

The courtroom EXPLODED with laughter, and a prompt recess was called.

Heard that one before; Good though; Heard one there recently myself, And be heard I mean in person heard;

Alcholizer Garda up in the box giving his evidence, Barrister starts going the bringing in doubt of his ability route;

B: SO Guard you have been trained on the Alcholizer?
G: Yes Judge
B: And could you tell me the workings of the inside of the Alcholizer?
G: No Judge
B: So Guard you are telling the court you are trained on how to get a reading out of the machine but do not know how it works?
G: Correct Judge, Im also a trained driver and I couldn't answer any questions you may ask me on a car engine.

Cue the judge, shoulders shaking, trying to contain a laugh and the rest of the court not being so successful in holding the laugh in

T'was very entertaining
