No, it comes from having to understand and interact with many different walks of life in the type of "work" he was doing. Careful selection of words matched with a tone that indicates an understanding of what is being said as it comes out is a particularly useful trait for what he did. Whether or not he had this ability before advancing in his profession matters not as you can guarentee he honed said skill further along the way.

I simply love this guy. I saw the Australian series called underbelly, and it had a two-part special on David McMillan and his escapades, and I simply love this man and his story. Against all odds, he ends up, being the reliable narrator, oddly enough, when usually men who live in the underbelly, if you will live the sort of lives, turned out to be exactly the opposite the unreliable narrator. The ultimate, charismatic, charming Britt, who ended up in Australia upon his families, mass exitus out of Britain, the man so charming. How can you not love him.

What he told about the not encrypted police radio is true. I remember listening to it 35+ years ago and they were talking about a certain street in Vienna, where a guy had "pulled out a tree" ... and I was living closely, thinking: "No way, no trees on that street!" Took me a while til I figured out, it's been one of 2 small "trees" in a planter on each side of a club's entrance there.

[@DavidMcMillan888]

Interesting, Anita

[@Anita-k]

@@DavidMcMillan888 Thank you so very much for reminding me of this hilarious situation! I laughed and laughed back then about that street without a tree, only when I drove by with a cab, I finally figured it out. When I heard this very little detail, I immediately knew it's worth watching ... I was wondering, how you didn't connect 2 and 2, when you heard about the garage door closing; I was always so paranoid back then and this paranoia would've caught up with me? Not convinced, it's really you, it's hard for my old butt here online (= me trying to sound funny, but English isn't my native language, so it likely isn't).

[@Anita-k]

* opening You did but too late. Were Australian drųg cops that bad ... how on earth did you get "chased by them"? Did you stick out of the masses like the proverbial "sore thumb"? Interestingly I never had this feud with local police, they just didn't take me seriously at all and I made sure to fly under their radar for the most part. It's always better to be just that smaller fish not interesting enough, still I'm surprised I survived.

[@Anita-k]

PS. I don't mean this question about the Australian drųg cops harassing you critically towards you ... I just didn't make any personal experiences like this back then, nor do I generally know Australian drųg cops at all. I was only a very small ticker in a club ... and even this wasn't the smartest idea, bc it's been the most infamous club of Vienna. Most likely as a woman, it's also been so much easier to escape them, bc female cops barely accompanied drųg raids back then, which was of course a fantastic opportunity for me; so don't take this the wrong way, please. I was just surprised hearing this ... then again, I was only a very small fish amongst a lot of other small fishes, basically hiding behind all the others that were eighter bigger or stood out more than me. That's where I'm coming from ... drųg cops have the whole day for chasing people down and they get paid for it, this alone is staking(?*) all the odds against people like you and me, so I believe you ... just wondering, how this happened. * Could be the wrong word, sorry, hopefully still understandable.
