BTW- Has anyone else on here ever had a "Producer"? I've had dozens over the years.
Not recently, but there was an occasion in my younger days.
I was living in Northampton with my parents and working from an office in Coventry just before I married and set up house in the metropolitan sprawl that is Nuneaton. One morning I had agreed to drop off my best mate at work which was ‘kind of’ on my route but to get from his work to the A45/M1/M45 to Cov but meant I needed to cut through the countryside towards the regular route.
I raced through Kislingbury like any good 22yr old in a company car and onto the little bridge only to meet a police car coming the other way.
We stopped about 2 foot apart and an arm gesture from the driver suggested that I might be well advised to back up and await his reaction.
I did as requested, got out of the car quickly, adopted a very submissive pose and apologised profusely. Took the words of advice quietly and agreed that I would report to a police station within the next few days and produce my license and insurance.
