Never Park in a Fire Station!

Roofless CarYesterday I visited a Hertfordshire Fire and Rescue station. We should all be grateful that these heroes are available day or night to come to our aid. When I visited, a group of youngsters were experiencing what it was like to wear the famous yellow helmet. They climbed ladders, squirted water from fire hoses and watched a demonstration on how to cut a roof off a car. I was relieved that they hadn’t made a mistake and chosen my car…

I parked my car at the fire station,
Someone said it was a good place to park.
I left it in front of a fire engine,
As it was almost dark.
The car was my pride and joy,
With a beautiful blood-red roof,
Stripes and stickers adorned it,
When I drove it I felt aloof!
When I returned the next morning,
(It had been a very good night!).
The car had become a cabriolet.
And the roof was now a skylight!
