Jeremy Clarkson on Security
If you don’t read Jeremy Clarkson, well you should. It’s not just the car stories that are funny you know. Even looking at the gangling man puts a grin on my face. I particularly like how he doesn’t have american teeth. Have you noticed?
I sneak this one in on a thin excuse that it’s about security. In Sydney.
While walking through Sydney late at night recently, I encountered a weedy-looking man in a high-visibility jacket standing on the foreshore underneath the Harbour Bridge. He’s there, I’m told, to ensure that Johnny Terrorist cannot blow this symbol of Australian pride into the water.
But, of course, it is actually quite difficult to blow up a bridge, especially one as sturdy and enormous as this Middlesbrough-made monster. Many hours would be needed to plant charges and, as a result, a large team of demolition experts would be necessary. Can you imagine how much planning would be required for such an operation?
Months. Years, maybe. And I’m sorry, but I doubt very much that a highly trained team of Muslim demolition terrorists would get to Sydney, with all the explosives necessary, after a year’s planning, and then say, “Oh, no. There’s a man in a high-visibility jacket patrolling the foreshore. That’s torn it.”
Read here - Offices sure look safe with Dozy on guard.
I would have included a picture of a guard beside the bridge, but we all know photographing a guard puts everyone’s life in danger.

Edit: A small point perhaps, but it does seem unlikely that if the terrorists were from a Muslim country, that any of them would be called Johnny. Unless it’s like an Indian call centre. You know, where he says his name is ‘Mike’ on the phone, but when you get the email it’s from Vikram.
Then maybe.
