A caller called the 999 emergency line in South Wales to report a mysterious bright stationary object in the sky. And when the police checked it out, they found that it was ... the moon!
Control Room: "South Wales Police, what's your emergency?"
Caller: "It's not really. I just need to inform you that across the mountain there's a bright stationary object."
Control room: "Right."
Caller: "If you've got a couple of minutes perhaps you could find out what it is? It's been there at least half an hour and it's still there."
Control: "It's been there for half an hour. Right. Is it actually on the mountain or in the sky?"
Caller: "It's in the air."
Control: "I will send someone up there now to check it out."
Caller: "OK."
The mystery was soon solved, as the exchange between control and an officer at the scene, makes clear.
Control: "Alpha Zulu 20, this object in the sky, did anyone have a look at it?"
Officer: "Yes, it's the moon. Over."
Ah, you've got to love the Welsh: Link - Thanks Phil!
Wellies wearing sheep shaggers! LOL This is a new classic.
I really am trying not to make the Welsh/sheep joke. It's too easy.
I can't look at a pair of boots, wellies without falling over in laughter. And look at Paddington Bear. He wears em too! hahahahahah
Ah, Wales, where the men are men and the sheep are scared.
Sorry.
