Isn’t the point that if you kill something that needs killing, you leave it kilt?

I mean, if you really want to show compassion, a couple of kicks to the ribs to see if they groan is plenty of effort.

I was slow on the uptake.

Police, “you kilt tha bloke.”

JB, “yeah, but I tried to revive him.”

JB pulls certificate from pocket and presents it to the copper.

Police, “Well then, what’s all this? Official, innit? Charges dropped. On yer way now.”

I’d like some appreciation for appropriating the local cultural lexicon and nailing the authenticity of that fictional exchange.

So is the new threat, I will beat the crap out of you but also make sure you are safe until the ambulance arrives? That is one caring hired killer right there.

Just redid mine recently at the surf club - all a part of surf lifesaving. I think I've had a certificate since I was a young teenager...and yes, it's been used!
