Way back in the last century, my brother and I borrowed a cub with a loader, and a stock trailer to haul it. We got our job done and called the owner to return it. He asked us to drop the cub off at his work place in town ( the JD dealer), and return the trailer to his farm. Unbeknownst to us, the town had a new mountie, who had gained a reputation for being a hardnose. We pulled into the dealership and were unloading the tractor, when it stalled halfway out of the trailer. Nothing suspicious here, just two ol' boys with somebody else's tractor half in their trailer,and it nearly dark. Just then, a cruiser pulled up right behind the ramp and blocked any further progress. A large and tough looking woman mountie got out, and hitched up her Sam Browne. She said- "are you boys loading or unloading this tractor?" "Unloading it, ma'am" we said. She said-"um-hum. And the lights on that trailer all work, don't they?" We said "yes they do, ma'am." ( This wasn't a lie- the lights did work- just not with this particular truck!) She said -"um-hum. I think you boys best be out of town by sunset!" We very quickly finished what we were about and followed her advice. We later found out that the dealership had had a number of thefts and the mounties were keeping an eye on it. Our new mountie used a little common sense, and we all had a chuckle about it later. :lol:
