Another visit from 50
The ship having finally berthed in Hamburg Tankschiffshafen or miles away from anything interesting was visited by the local plod. They had some questions (see prior posts to confirm my suspicion of the aforementioned)to ask, they had Glock pistols in holsters and had black leather gloves on, they also had uniforms in case anyone thinks they only had pistols and gloves. One was from the same mold as Jean-Claude Van Damme the other was from the same mold as Inspector Frost aka David Jason and they both had similar ages to their respective actors. They were courteous and shook hands, as is the tradition, there is plenty hand shaking in this game. Policeman2 had obviously just splashed on half a bottle of Brut aftershave prior to his leaving the police launch (see above) and when he took off his black leather glove the air was filled with the scent of aftershave which he then transferred to my hand in a good Attila the Hun style death grip handshake, maybe I exaggerate on the grip but the unwanted aftershave doft still lingers above the petrol fumes.
After all our visits from the Police, do they not have anything better to be doing? I mean we are hardly crime suspects and we get plenty of police time, what do the crims get? Away with it, probably.
After that note of Zen, I sign off for today. Auf Wiedersehen.
