ps I'm aware of the Police Reform Act 2002, I was commenting on the Mail's slant....though I do think Sir Hugh is being a bit sad 96 President of ACPO If a person who holds the office of constable becomes the president of the Association of Chief Police Officers of England, Wales and Northern Ireland, he shall, while he is the president of that Association- (a) continue to hold the office of constable; and ( hold that office with the rank of chief constable.

I see the Mail is running a piece on Hugh Orde regularly wearing an invented uniform with an "ACPO" cap badge. Whats worse is that its a blue CC type, not even his old PSNI greens. Since he isnt a cop anymore, shouldnt he be nicked?

some of my customers have offered me a full body massage in the past...fortunately I've always managed to provide them with one first

well...I'm always up for some young punk being unpleasant...I got a couple of weeks off work once, breaking a finger prodding a humourist in the chest when offering advice to run along home...I bet his sternum hurt more!

recruit a shed load of Specials. Introduce Reserve Constables a la retained fireman model.....THEN change the law covering Police terms / conditions / pensions / tax / redundancy. When the Fed go to Europe for the right to strike, break the industrial action using the new uniforms

she was on my shift as a proby - the wife tutored her. All very shocking

I got mine this time last year (late) - I've worn it once at a disciplinary (no, not mine) - I see little point of medals nowadays, when no piece of uniform is available to place the ribbons. Personally, I believe we should be proud - we should go back to the era of Police uniforms in the inter-war years - we should wear rinbbon boards like US cops do - with 1st aid badges, marksmen badges, 5 year service chevrons, (even wound chevrons were displayed in the 1920's-30's) - the whole shebang! It values experience, service to the community, boots morale, gives people targets etc etc . We've become so bland, that 30 years dribbles by without commentKaiser Bill2009-10-06 20:15:44

thank you all - thats my half century (I'm still depressed!)

Well, a light has gone out - my thoughts are with you Crobes - it was plain for all to see you both had a very special relationship. I feel for your heartache

Its never been the same since Virgil Tracy left her cos she was too short for him

if everything gets claimed on expenses, whats their salary for?

they'll be Black Mice, surely?

Well the best things cum in small packages. Allegedly... Oh God..... . I take it all back KB, come back! dont come running to me, you miniature floozy !!

Neenaw trying for (yet another) notch eh?
