That’s surely a photoshop? The whole thing does look ‘right’,m especially that the ‘Polite’ is 2 die,nsional with no marks where the seams on the van are? Or am I totally wrong and/or need a parrot?

These nasty little worms are exactly the sort of people who enjoyed grassing up their neighbors to the Stasi. I bet they're really missing the feeling of power they got in COVID when there was endless opportunity for boot licking and grassing.And no I'm not

It’s a photoshop. You can see them holding their camera up in the reflection! Will be a screen grab and the POLITE added. The letters are vertical and the van is on an angle.

Took a while though I do love the use of DOG SECTION as though they are the Dog Section part of a multi-billion pound security organisation, when in reality it's a bloke with bad hygiene and 2 Alsatians doing a job where he can sit in his van and not have to move.

POLITE or not, something inside me wants to change the letters in DOG SECTION to GOD SECTION.

Spotted one on my way through Aylesbury last weekend.
What looked like a Police motorcyclist stopped at the side of the road. Big white bike, panniers, fairing etc. Rider had all the authentic looking gear on - but, on the back of his hi-viz the word 'POLITE'
That's not walty, doing anything that makes motorists pay attention to a motorcyclist is common sense.What looked like a Police motorcyclist stopped at the side of the road.

The correct course of action if anyone spots a POLITE biker is to wait for them to pull over for a piss, then politely drop a match in their petrol tank.

I genuinely don't understand the hatred for people who have "POLITE" written on their outfits. So what if they've got POLITE on the back of their hi-viz? What difference has it made to you?
Quite obviously, the fact that they are intentionally designed to be deceptive and have the appearance of a person dressed in POLICE uniform, hence why they just happen to also have white/blue battenberg markings as well as the same green base colour that police hi-viz uses (yes, I realise it’s a common colour but others are available which would make ‘polite’ people very obviously distinct from people who enforce the law. People behave differently around the police, and walts & other assorted morons have no business going around just about on the legal side of impersonating them.The fact that the two words are very similar in spelling and appearance is a happy coincidence for the walts who make and buy this stuff.

Have a older fella in work who does bouncer round local places/events. He's always full of big stories. I quite enjoy them as they are entertaining but they are quite sensational.
Every time he starts a story and someone new is in another boy pipes up in good nature banter "now I'm just warning you, this could be a lie."
It never stops him though he just keep telling the stories

There is a chasm of difference between a tall tale to entertain and the self-aggrandizing boring horse sEvery time he starts a story and someone new is in another boy pipes up in good nature banter "now I'm just warning you, this could be a lie."

t that Walts spout to big themselves up I think.One you can listen to and laugh and it's often tongue in cheek from the storyteller and the audience are in on it, the other all you can do is smile and nod until can get away from the tedious fool. I worked with a bloke who could easily have been the 1st and had it in him to tell a great story, but had to put a bit of walt-esque crap about his own John Wick black belt ninja special forces Jack Reacher magnificence and it ruined the whole thing.
I worked with a bloke very similar. He always began a story with "een, o my mates" a story which was super far fetched and eleven a reefed the former story. 40 year old virgin that still lived with his parents and extremely immature. Not a nasty person by any means but a bit of a bell end?
At the weekend then Riverside Museum in glasthad a display of fire engines outside, some really old, and quite a few newer ones that kids could sit in. Extremely popular.
Sunday, someone brings a WW2 Willy's Jeep to park next to them and for kids to sit in.
I've no idea why, it's not fire related at all, he may have been invited,or just turned up, I don't know, but it was just so incongruous.
At least the bloke with it wasn't in uniform
