My daughter did very well in her National 5 exams (bit like GCSEs), so much so that the local rag came to school and took her photo and did a wee piece on her and her schools results. Of course, as proud parents we dutifully buy a copy for her and one to send the grandparents. There she is, looking beautiful and clever on page 10. But wait, who is this handsome and rugged chap on the FRONT COVER, standing with his hands in his pockets surveying a crime scene - oh yes ๐Ÿ™‚ . Naturally I am in trouble for this from the long haired general, despite it not being my fault at all.

Bravo rozzer!

๐Ÿ˜‰

Now you just need to photo bomb all her other greatest hits.

I'm thinking "lurker dad at back of dance hall", or even "let's see that reverse parking again sunshine"

Not quite that exciting. But yes, I think I might give this photo bombing lark ago. Better check first whether you can get done for stalking your own kid...

What the teachers got caught fiddling the exam results.

From the title and seeing who'd posted it I genuinely thought this was going to be another competitive farting thread. ๐Ÿ™‚

In a similar vein to the o.p, about 7 or 8 years ago my Mrs (at the time a specialist witness interviewer) was asked to take part in a 3 part documentary on BBC called Eyewitness where a reconstruction of a crime would be witnessed by a group of volunteers who then went on to be interviewed as witnesses (I think you can still see bits on YouTube). She went on about it for months and about how much detail the programme had gone into, to the extent that they had detectives turn up and obtain first accounts, as would happen in real life.

To ensure realism she hadn't seen any of the reconstruction footage when doing the interviews and almost a year after it was filmed it was to be broadcast so excitedly we settled down together to watch her moment of glory. Her family up and down the country had all been told to watch or record it..

Which I apparently ruined slightly by neglecting to tell her right up until the point that I appeared on screen, that I was one of the detectives who attended the scene of the "crime" ๐Ÿ˜€
