Just went for a constitutional around the area after an Indonesian dinner of fish cakes with tofu embedded in them. Tastes nicer than it sounds! They were imported personally by a girl in the apartment here just back from her New Year trip home.
Anyway, I digress! I found, interestingly enough, that there is a St Patrick’s Road right around the corner from me! That’s interesting (well, sort of!) because I’m Irish of course and also because I haven’t seen any other Catholic sounding street names on maps or in person since I came here.
Bit further up the road, I came upon a minor traffic accident. There was a cop in attendance and he was driving a Suburu Impreza WRX (for those not in the know, basically a road version of their souped up rally car). Nice wheels – if only I didn’t have flat feet, wasn’t half blind, wasn’t a citizen or too old, I’d go for a job here as PC Plod!
2.03 points for the TV reference in the title. It’s a little obscure, perhaps.

Not sure if it's a TV connection but 'Don't call me Shirley' is the punch line from a slew of gags in the Airplane! films.
I thought it was from Police Squad originally, but I don't know which used it first!
As you no doubt know, it's from the same people and the gag was in both! Leslie Nielson used it all the time!!!
I'll award points for the Airplane! answer also!
