The catch is you have to be a serving police officer in India, but hell it's money for old rope !!

Clicky for article

"Private research had shown that constables, head constables, and even sub-inspectors with moustaches, were taken more seriously by the public. It added to their overall look of authority."

In the UK you earn a lot more than that, considering how much you save on pricey Mach3 blades.

As for "this is money for old rope", I always liked the Goons' riposte. "Really? I'd have thought you'd have found something better to spend it on."

What's so important about your nose that you have to underline it!
