PARKED ON THE LAW

A young man had just passed his driving test and was returning home to tell his friends and family the good news. On his way, he decided to stop at an liquor store to buy a celebratory bottle of champagne. He couldn't find a parking place anywhere, so he parked halfway on to the pavement, rushed into the store, bought a bottle of champagne and rushed out again. On returning to his car, however, he was concerned to see a policeman standing by the vehicle. Sheepishly, the boy approached the policeman and told him he'd only just parked it there. The policeman replied, gritting his teeth: "I know. You parked on my bloody foot!"
