Right, young Bernard, you had a good afternoon on Saturday, now's the time for some hard work. First thing tomorrow, get up to Jen's gaff with some posters...and be sharp about it!

IMHO , This is like litter . These boards never come down after the election for ages . I see them all over the place . The government can have you arrested for throwing something on the floor , But not for bringing the boards down ? WHY
These boards should not be allowed .

I think if 5 blokes pulled up outside my house at 3.30 am and started roaming round my garden I would be dialing 999 as well.

i rang the police the other week after my neigbour rang me to tell me about two suspicous people who were hanging around my front door and peeking over my rear garden fence.

turned out it was C.I.D wanting to speak to me about an armed robbery.

apparently they are under funded and wanted some cash raising

they really do need to improve on the inteligence side of the job i look sod all liek the photofit lol

3-30 in morning woman on her own 5 blokes in garden, ya aint thinking straight to me shaz.

The response time from calling the local police line takes forever for someone to come out. Thankfully on this occasion these guys only wanted her party posters but it could have been much worse. I certainly wouldnt have waited to find out.

In all fairness if this had been a different outcome and jen hadnt have dialed 999 how many would be critising for her not using the service provided.

Agree have personally known instances when "Locals" dont even come out "Sorry Too Busy"
