Pope Driving
Posted: Sun Oct 22, 2017 11:58 am
The Pope on a private visit to the UK, had a limo organised at the airport for his time here. The driver waiting for the Pope to get in, notices him admiring the drivers seat, and controls.
"Excuse me your eminence" said the driver "Would you like to take your seat so we can leave"
"To tell you the truth" says the Pope "they never let me drive at the Vatican and I would really like to have a go in this formidable machine"
"I am sorry, I cannot let you do that, I would lose my job" said the driver, wishing he had never come in to work that morning.
The Pope said "Look, I am very well paid in my job, and with access to millions I could make it very worthwhile for you"
Relunctantly, the driver gets in the back, and the Pope climbs in behind the wheel. The driver very quickly regrets his decision, the supreme pontiff floors it and exits the airport at over 105mph.
"Please slow down, your Holiness" says the worried driver, but the Pope, now on the motorway, puts the pedal to the metal until they hear sirens.
"Oh dear God ..!! moans the driver "now I am going to lose my licence"
The Pope pulls over on to the hard shoulder and winds down his window, the motorway cop looks in and is aghast, immeadiatly walks back to his car and gets on the radio.
"I need to talk to the Chief Inspector" he says with a shaky voice
The CI gets on the radio and the cop tells him that he has stopped a limo going at 130+mph
"Throw the book at him"
"I am not sure we should do that sir, he is really important" says the cop
"All the more reason" exclaimed the Inspector
"No...I mean really important"
"Oh come on" who you got there The Prime Minister" says the Inspector jokingly
"No...bigger"
"What..!! the Queen"
"No.. bigger"
"What..!" says the Inspector "Who is it...???
"I think its God"
"What makes you think that for heavens sake" (excuse the pun)
"Well" said the copper "He's got the Pope as his driver"
Cheers
