Nostalgia of a pensionado policeman
Director Lóbbes
Deep in the dark caverns of the last century, I work as a young copper in the Rijkpolice Corps. On a Saturday I have the morning shift. In these nostalgic times of yesteryear, on weekends the entire fleet is washed by externals, often the children of colleagues with a certain age, for a reasonable fee.
The Volvo 340 are at that time equipped as a police vehicle. With the old-fashioned Storno mobile phone and fixed speech key on an elastic cable. The desks of yesteryear have a fixed call number and the surveillance cars - k.s.a. - also.
It seems as if even then there was a substantial cut back on the equipment and service vehicles and with the bare interior including the seats of the service cars.. Cold in winter and hot in summer. In other words, of a kind of plastic-like skai divided into a number of seams that prevent you from drifting off the chair in summer by sweating like a .arken. There is no air conditioning except for the air conditioning that is allowed by manually opening or closing the door windows with the window latch. Labor vitamins in the form of a radio have been crossed out as the first austerity measure. You wouldn't pay attention to the radio music in the service hours..
Anyway, putting all this aside, my colleague and I are getting a report of a dangerous looking big dog somewhere in our surveillance area. He is black in color, has curls and is not approached by Jan and Alleman. Let's say he's in need of peace and the delicious ethereal scents he meets in his path. It makes sense that he wishes to be left alone.
We make its range smaller and smaller and at some point the dog is at sight distance. He's sniffing and sniffing his way around But doesn't look dangerous or aggressive. What I do know is that dogs feel an irresistible attraction to cars. He is tall in stature with a well-groomed appearance and clean on the hook weighing 45-50 kilos, I estimate.
Then I bring the service vehicle near him to a halt and approach this Lóbbes, for I do not know his name. After a brief sniffing acquaintance, Lóbbes Frank and freely steps into the lion's lair, I mean here, he takes place as a director of a large factory in the back seat of plastic skai, in our service vehicle. He occupies the entire backseat with his perky body and members.
It's still early on this Saturday. Reports of the disappearance process of Lóbbes are not yet available. Social media has yet to be invented. Alerting the whole thing via the emergency room in Mestreech has no added value at the moment..
So my colleague and I are driving around with Director Lóbbes. He loves it and enjoys his taxi ride in the western mining region along fields, roads except valleys because there are not. Occasionally, a snooping break is taken for director Lóbbes, after which we go on the road together again.
The ether on the police channel remains and remains silent. No reports of the missing Lóbbes who is now in good hands.
I ride with Lóbbes past my eega who is devoted by this beautiful and sweet creature. Unfortunately we already have two cocker spaniels with the names Tommie and Alfie. At the desk, Lóbbes goes to the briefing or drinking coffee for intimacy. He doesn't like coffee but he likes fresh water and my sandwich, which I like to share with Lóbbes.
There are still no reports of the missing of Lóbbes before the end of the shift. Apparently and surely he was deported, why? Joost should know that!
Then I contact the animal shelter in Geleen with the reason to bring this sweet dog back into the hands of his caregivers. Administrator Noel takes the dog into his ranks, because no reports of missing persons have been made at the animal shelter.. I say goodbye to Lóbbes and leave him in good care, though under lock and key, where I am sure that he will be taken care of well, his wet and dry.
Then we continue our services. When I walk outside I hear a dog whining, yelling and crying. I ask Noel, is that Lóbbes.
Yes, he answers... this bouvier wants to take another ride
Then I leave the Lifebuoy and the question in my head, I should have taken him home personally, without .
