A friend of ours related an amusing thing that I have to think would only happen here. First you must know it was her birthday. Second, know that here in Italy it is normal to be pulled over randomly by the Carabinieri for road checks. They want to see ID and registration. They check your tag on their computers for insurance, and whether the car tax was paid etc. and if everything is ok, they say “arrivederci”.
Our friend said, after she dropped off her husband at the train station, she was driving home and got pulled over by the Carabinieri, Italy’s military police. In her words they were “equipped with bullet proof vests, automatic weapons and those gorgeous uniforms. Serious as hell, but after checking my id’s and registration, came back to the car, and proceeded to sing happy birthday to me! Okay, that was a first!” Tell me folks, would this happen in your country? 😁
From her drivers license. It has her birthdate.
HUH? really ? how did they know?
It was! She loved it.
It’s why I posted it because I laughed when I heard it.
Love this!!!!
Love it!
I love it! That is a great story, and probably a big surprise for her.
Buon compleanno a te! 🙂
I just laughed at that story, still have a big smile. That is SO Italy!
What a great story!! We all know the answer to that question; Only in Italia!
