Hi to All,

HOW TO CALL THE POLICE WHEN YOU'RE OLD AND DON'T MOVE FAST ANYMORE.

George Phillips of Gold Coast, Australia was going to bed when his wife
told him that he'd left the light on in the garden shed, which she could
see from the bedroom window. ( sound familiar! )
George opened the back door to go turn off the light but saw that there
were people in the shed stealing things.

He phoned the police, who asked 'Is someone in your house?' and he said
'no'. Then they said that all patrols were busy, and that he should simply
lock his door and an officer would be along when available. George said,

'Okay,' hung up, counted to 30, and phoned the police again.
'Hello, I just called you a few seconds ago because there were people
stealing things from my shed. Well, you don't have to worry about them now
because I've just shot them.' Then he hung up.
Within five minutes three police cars, an Armed Response Unit, and an
ambulance showed up at the Phillips' residence and caught the burglars red-handed.

One of the Policemen said to George: 'I thought you said that you'd shot them!'

George said,
(True Story) I reckon this is great!! - Don't stuff old people about!!

Well isn't that the truth.
