Can I phone the Police just to have some company?

Original Yahoo Answers post: Is it alright to phone the police so you can have a cup of tea and buscuits with them?

Funny Answer: Yeah it's fine. After all they are paid by your tax dollars, so why not have them spend time with you? What else do they have to do anyway, give out parking fines? And I am sure all those speeding motorists will feel safer knowing that "the force" is in your house rather than checking speed on the highway. As an added bonus they are already in the house and ready to arrest the criminals should there be a home invasion or burglary.

Serious answer: I do not think that it is the role of the police. You should try to find what social activities are organized in your town. Scrabble club or Bingo may seem boring, but they are an opportunity to meet people.
