"May I ask why your hand is in that bank deposit slot, Miss?"

Oh dear...I would have been terrified at the age of twenty to be approached by two policemen caught with my hand in the slot! I was very shy and naïve at that age too. It's usually amusing when you look back on incidents like this and compare how you would handle it now compared to how you did then. It usually makes me cringe when I look back at how I was! At least the cops were understanding and you scored a lift home! By the way did you get your hair pins back?

That was nice of them. I am glad they believed you. It could have been a real mess. I am glad it turned out alright for you. They probably took you home, so they knew where to go, if the bank had any problems.

my,my,i have done a lot of such goofy things,glad it turned alright in your case!once i was out with my niece,she was irritating me,so i took one of her choclates,a cop was passing,she started bawling and told them i wasnt her mother,the cops wouldnt listen to me and they came with me to my home to check.

LOL. I am sure that we are all guilty of doing some things like this at some time or other. I'm sure I have done things like this also. I have wanted to get things back also and could not get to it and i know it looked suspicious too.

That is so hilarious.. Tell me that it isn't really a true story.. I can just imagine someone doing something this crazy and getting caught while trying to fix it before anyone found out how crazy they were in the first place.. This is a great discussion to end my day on.. I will still remember it while trying to go to sleep tonight.. Great one Hatley

hi patsie. yes, that's frightening to do an atm transactions in the evening. we really can't anticipate what will happen in the night. at least, they're cops, not bad guys. me, never, as i can remember something like that happened to me before. take care.

Wow!! I know I accidently deposited a Blank envelope once and had my Debit Card froze to where they almost did not let me have one. So I can imagine an envelope full of Bobby pins, but to have something happen like this at night, luckily these were just Cops for sure. But I am sure this was a Scary but interesting experience for sure, and at least you got home safely as well.

can't say I have ever been confronted like that but I know I have done things that might appear to be questionable if seen by the right eyes. Mostly breaking into my own apartment or vehicle.

Aw Hatley, that must have been one hell of an experience. honestly, you poor girl. Im sure the police must have been suspicious on seeing you trying to retrieve your envelop. Its normal for them to suspect, and I cant say I blame them. However, so long as they understood and laughed it off, its good. All the best pal, and see you dont land in such a soup again. haha.

Oh my!! lol What a bad situation to be caught up in and not just by anybody but the police?? OUCH.... lol Apparently you gave them a good enough answer that they in turn were nice enough to take you home! I have a cop friend who stayed with me all night at my job because I was too afraid to be there alone but was going to do it because I hadn't a choice. That's how we became such great friends. He's helped me out of a couple of situations so it's nice to have a cop friend when in a pickle but not be caught in a situation such as yours. lol

Hi Hatley, You worry me sometime, please don't go out on yor own at nigth and its a good thing the cops were there, at least you fell safe with them around, lol. Tamara

Oh my word! I never have had this to happen to me but I can imagine how you must have felt! I would have been all shook up, too! I'm just glad they turned out to be nice after all. A lot of people don't realize it but police make mistakes, too. I know, I never gave it any thought for a long time, myself. Kathy.

[b]Hello my friend Wow, what bad timing I would have been nervous as well, can't say i have been through anything like this, but as long as you know you were not doing anything wrong, being able to explain although hard made alot of sense, good thing they were not nasty and looking to give someone a hard time, knowing me I would have cried as well. Thanks for sharing this my friend.[/b]

Haha! What horrible timing! Yes, I have done that before. One time I was in a store, getting ready to purchase some clothes. I was wearing a skirt, with shorts underneath, because it was chilly outside [I know, stupid right?} Well I'd left my money in my back jeans pocket, so when I was checking out I reached down the back of my skirt to pull the money out of my jean pocket. I couldn't get it out, so it looked like I was scratching my butt! I was sooo embarrassed, and when I turned around there was an old man staring at me hardcore. Oh man, I'll never wear that combo again!

Oh Goodness Hatley, I think I would have cried straight away, that is so awful to happen lol Lol I don't think anything like that has ever happened to me Big hugs to you

I am wondering whether you got the hair pins back and what the bank must have thought about it if you didn't! There was a couple of weeks ago when I peeked into my building with that cat I rescued to see if the guard would help me find a box and he jumped down my throat for trying to bring a cat into the building, which I wasn't. He didn't go one little centimeter out of his way to help either.

What a wonderful story Hatley. Well, I am sure that if I thought hard enough so many examples like your would come to mind. But I will tell you of the first incident that I remember. I was pregnant and the driver had taken me to the city tio see my doctor. I always stayed at a friend's house to rest before going home in the country. So he dropped me off and I told him to pick me up in a couple of hours. My friend was at work but her husband who is a doctor too was at home. It was stifling hot in the city - not even a breeze and my friend's husband was lying on his bed. Their bedroom was the only one with air conditioning in those days. He said to me to lie on the bed and rest and he had to rest before he went back on duty at the hospital. In those days we wore a full length maternity slip under the dress o I took off the dress and lay in the bed. within minutes we were both asleep. Well, he wife had invited a group of women where she worked to come home for tea. So they all arrived together - about 6 of them. She told them to make for her bedroom and told them to turn on the ac. Of course, when they all came into the bedroom, there was I cuddled up against her husband's back and the two of us fast asleep! One of the women let out a horrified scream as she hadn't noticed how vastly pregnant I was. All she noticed was that my slip was around my waist and I was cuddled into the back of the husband. Eventually we all had a good laugh atit. My GF didn't thnk anything of it at all - especially as she had just found out that her husband was gay!

that is a great story, although i can't think of anything to rival it just now. will get back to you if i do.
