Having a seat in the Murraygate today with a cup of coffee and a tab.
While I'm sitting there pondering life's great pageant, a well-known shoplifter comes bombing past with two coats under each arm. He bombs doon a wee pendie by Marks & Sparks and I return to my reverie.
A minute or two later, plod x 2 come panting through the Murraygate with all their tactical gear weighing them doon (along wie the beer guts and flat feet). One of them recognises me through work and decides to get some intelligence (good luck wie that fuzz).
After a bit of wilful ignorance on my part, plod 1 tries to ID me and starts going on about obstruction. Plod 2 looks like he's lost the will to live, but now that his 'brother' has went doon that road, he's kinda obligated to throw his not insubstantial weight aroond too.
I don't know what bothered them more? The fact that my uproarious laughter had drawn a wee crowd, or the actual fact that the most useless shoplifter in Dundee had somehow outsmarted them.
I hate the polis for many reasons, but I particularly hate polis who think it's my civic duty to do their joab for them.
By the way, S****o, if you happen to be reading this, I'll gie ye 20 brick for that yella jaiket ye swiped.
