Yesterday a police officer came to my door and asked me if he and his team could use my backyard as a stakeout for something going down in the alleyway. Of course I said sure. He gave me a big grin and said, “do you like my undercover beard?”
I said I did, but that it needed work.
He said, “I know. It’s patchy.”
True story. These actually are the people in our neighbourhood. But not the man on the bench above. He’s in Barcelona, via Flickr.
