No not his swimming trunks...
The other day Eric is driving up Ulwell Road in the Coastguard truck when he spots the Police speed trap. He’s not speeding so no problems.
He returns to the station and says that it’s dead tricky because our truck speedometer says 20 and 40, but not 30. He explains to an incredulous audience of coasties that he couldn’t see the number 30 and thought he’d better play it safe and chose the number 20 …..at this point someone spat their coffee over the carpet.
We explained that he could split the difference by allowing the speedo needle to fall halfway between 20 and 40 ….which would be 30.
(As an aside, Eric only wears his speedos when he's playing golf)
