Wasn't that the Black Panther, Nielson? I obviously don't remember it but I've read stories.

Yes, I remember that one too Cashy. Many years later we met a man on Scarborough beach who had been in charge of the investigation.

That explains the two police cars that screeched towards me as I was coming past the sports centre heading towards Ossy.

I overheard somebody saying he was down South this morning.

If it was an armed robbery, the robbers wont be that pleased, a little old lady was cashing in all her 1p's and 2p's this morning. It took her forever to get them counted up into £1's by the temp post-mistress !

Ok.. so has there been an armed robbery? or is this just another one of those "I saw a police car, there must have been a murder" or " I saw a helicopter, I've heard there is a terrorist cell operating down our street".. sort of post? :D

The PO was cordoned off. Traffic was held up. We know those facts. We await further info.

U not watched the film willow about how your life would run & also shows it re run but if a small change or did differently how that could effect it for the better.... ie if my dad was on time he could of been in there when it happened scary exp but whereas luckily he was late so was already cordoned off with police yet safe.

If I have I've probably forgotten - sometimes I get halfway through a film before I remember that I've seen it before. :D
