The Pope is flying back home to Rome from America when his plane has engine trouble, and is forced to make an emergency landing at Inverness.
Someone suggests that he is taken for a drive while engineers check out the aircraft. And the Pope is delighted at the chance to see nearby Loch Ness. So a Chauffeur driven Limousine is summond, and once on their way, the Pope slides open the glass partition and tells the driver. " Listen I`m always being driven around the and never get the chance to drive myself. Why do we not chance places and let me drive ?".
Sorry your Holiness says the old highland chauffeur. They would sack me if they found out.
But the Pope is very persuasive. Only you me and God will ever find out. And I`ll bless your name in Rome when I get back.
So the chauffeur and the Pope swap places and suddenly the Holy Father is careering around the narrow country highland roads at 120mph.
The going to kill us both screams the chauffeur in the back. Have faith the Pope shouts back to him.
Eventually the Limo speed is reported to the Police and a traffic Sergeant eventually stops the Limo near to Fort William.
As the window is rolled down the Policeman and the traffic Sergeant suddenly get on the radio to the control centre in Inverness. And they tell the control centre the car has been stopped and they both know the driver and are not sure what to do next as the passenger is a very important person.
The boss at the control centre tells them book the driver. And the traffic sergeant tells his boss you just do no not understand the passenger is very very important.
The boss at the control centre asks is he the Cheif Constable ?
No Sir
Is he the Prime Minister
No Sir
Are they Royal Family
No Sir
Then book him
But Sir he is more important than any of these people. I think he is God Sir.
The Boss splutters God what makes you think he is God.
Well for a start he has the Pope driving him around the Scottish Highlands Sir.
