Challenged by Accy fuzz yesterday about my 'erratic driving'. I've now heard it was probably a case of mistaken ID!

Yesterday while in the retro clothing shop I work in part time, three coppers walked past my car, parked outside the shop and looked at it. By the time I'd got to the door they were half way down the street. If I'd got there in time I'd have asked them if my car is being mistaken for that class A drugs dealer's car and if so could they please make a note that my Fiat 500 is the one with the soft top/roll back roof, not the hard top owned by the drug dealer! Later as I walked through the town centre, two plod vehicles passed me, with both drivers of those vehicles looking at me. OK, I might've stood out because of what I was wearing, but they weren't friendly looks, even when I sarcastically waved at them! 😏

I've just edited/corrected this thread's title, from Challengeded to Challenged. Why didn't someone point it out to me! I can take it!😉

I didn't notice that. But while we are on the subject, there is a double R in erratic..... 👍

Thanks for that Brandane, I've just corrected that as well! I've had a bit of a virus the last month, having to call 111 with them sending an ambulance out to me two weeks ago. Last night I left my door unintentionally unlocked for hours, which isn't a sensible thing to do these days. I think this virus has affected my mind slightly!🙄

You've obviously had this virus for several years that we (members of CC) know of then?
But seriously, GWS Accy. Your new found fan club in Accrington need you!

Mark my words - another month of this and Accy will have a book deal and be in the Big Brother house chatting up a weather girl.

Also designing the new Ineos off the bike kit.

See, even the villains are well turned out up Accy's end.

Indeed - so you can see why they thought dapper young Accie was one of them

I reckon you could get in the local rag, posing sad faced in front of your car. "Local Man Mistaken For Drug Lord and Gang Leader" could be the headline.

I reckon "Well known local style icon" would be more appropriate. He surely must be a face round Accrington.

I think anyone walking around Accrington for any length of time dressed like the dapper king of semi rural ex industrial small town shire will be well regarded as a force to be reckoned with!

Also you've accidentally reminded me I need to watch this film again soon.
