It has always struck me as odd to have a police unit called The Serious Crime Squad. All crime is serious by definition. I know what they mean by 'Serious Crime: murder, rape, bank robbery, for example. 'Serious' is defined as: 1. Demanding or characterised by careful consideration or application. 2. Acting or speaking sincerely and in earnest, rather than in a joking or half-hearted manner. You could apply that definition to investigating any crime. So, I have flipped it on its head - the opposite of serious is 'frivolous'. 'Frivolous' is defined as: Not having any serious purpose or value. I have invented crimes that the Serious Crime Squad would not touch: 1. Stealing collection money from a church. 2. Wheelie bin fire. 3. Theft of five pairs of very expensive knickers. It follows therefore, that these crimes are frivolous; hence the name of the book!
