Police and Response Time

    One night last week I was going to bed when I noticed that
    I'd stupidly left the light on in the garden shed.
    As I looked out of the window I noticed that there were several people in the shed, stealing my belongings. I immediately phoned the Police who told me that there was nobody in that vicinity and that they'd send somebody over as soon as they were available.

    I said Fine, then hung up. A minute later I rang back and said "Hi, I just called a minute ago regarding a burglary taking place in my shed. Well, I thought I'd let you know that there is no need to worry because I've just shot them all."

    Three minutes later a dozen police vehicles and armed response personell were on my premises and naturally they caught the burglars red-handed.

    One of the officers said - "Hey, I thought you said you'd shot them all?"

    I responded - "I thought you said nobody was available!"
