itsmeagain Posted November 4, 2014 Share Posted November 4, 2014 (edited) As if Onduty hadn't enough problems, the car radio spluttered into life as the car hit Sheffield. "PC Onduty, your location please?

Me too!' Trixie giggled and turned it on again. 'Copy Mr Officer-Sergeant, 10-4 big buddy, Mama Bear reads you. We're on our way with bells and doodah buttons. Over and out.' PC OnDuty's face got very red and puffy. He slammed on the brakes, causing Dex, who was still following gamely behind, to ..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Then Trixie saw Dex in the door mirror, and gave a whoop of surprise and joy."PC Onduty are you reading me?" came the radio message. Dennis said"Onduty, am in Sheffield..Onduty is on duty."

poppy Posted November 5, 2014 Share Posted November 5, 2014 Trixie flew out of the car, over to Dex and threw her arms round his neck. "Oh Dexie, I've had such an adventure, I'm going to tell you ALL about it!' 'I can't wait,' said Dex, smiling, 'but before you do, there's just one thing I have to do. Go and sit in the car, I'll be there in a minute.' Dex walked over to PC Onduty, took a swing, caught him neatly under the chin, and laid him out cold.

itsmeagain Posted November 6, 2014 Share Posted November 6, 2014 PC Onduty fell to the floor. PC Onduty went to his car. PC Onduty said into his radio "PC Onduty here, and all is well. I am in Sheffield and I have a reason. I am turning round and returning to London. Chavville burglary? Will be there in three hours time." "PC Onduty, report to Inspector Teabody in his office on return to London." came the reply. Meanwhile Dex Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

poppy Posted November 7, 2014 Share Posted November 7, 2014 'Dexie,' Trixie said in her most wheedling, little girl voice, something she'd found highly effective with most of the men in her life , 'could we get a car with a siren and flashing light and one of those walkie-talkie radios? Please Dexie, PLEASE! They're so much fun. You could pretend to be a policeman and handcuff me and things.' "Well,' replied Dex, thoughtfully, 'I don't know about the siren and flashing light, but now you mention it, a CB radio might be handy. I've got a mate who knows how to tune into the cop channel .....hmm that could be interesting. I might be able to mess with PC Onduty a little bit more. ' An evil plan was formulating in Dex's mind.

poppy Posted November 8, 2014 Share Posted November 8, 2014 now several weeks since our intrepid travellers had landed in South Africa. Tintaglia had found a wonderful wild life park for Bertrand and because she had such a rapport with animals, she'd been offered a job there, which she'd accepted. Poppy unfortunately, had got involved in some civil rights protest march and was now languishing in jail, awaiting deportation. Itsme had kindly bought her books to read, to help while away the time. She was presently ploughing through the six volume omnibus edition of The History of the Decline and Fall of the Roman Empire, unbridged. Itsme decided it was time to .......

poppy Posted November 9, 2014 Share Posted November 9, 2014 It had taken some fast talking and greasing of palms to get Poppy out of clink but the fact she'd been singing Please Release Me almost constantly, very loudly and very out of tune, probably had quite a lot to do with her early release. Seating themselves on the plane, they breathed a sigh of relief, but their troubles were far from over.
