The Locker Room

hey all!! Im off on my hols on Friday and cant wait! Its been a long year so Im looking forward to a bit of sunshine and cocktails! So, Im flying to Langkawi in Malaysia, then to Singapore for the Grand prix, which should be great....then the bit Im really looking forward too (assuming the chugga chugga plane taking us there doesnt crash into a million pieces in the jungle.)...off to Borneo to trek in the rain forest and see the Organgutan! The only thing Im not looking forward to is the potential for snakes and tree leeches which apparently drop out of the trees and latch onto your skin!! the only way to get them off is to burn them... Sorry for pointless post! Just …

http://www.orange.co.uk/news/quirkies/?rm=...storyId=3477583 An Austrian man has been fined £45 for breaking wind while he was being questioned by police officers. What would one get for a good burp? :lol:

Yesterday a gang of armed men atacked a cash-in-transit van just outside Pretoria. The gang were spotted by the CIT guards who radioed the Police, who then instructed the van to drive to a relatively unused location. The van was stopped by the robbers and Police were on scene at the same time. Six of the nine robbers were shot dead at the scene and the three who escaped are now being pursued. The SAPS spokesperson on TV news said "Robbers should be aware that we will not allow them to rob. This should be a lesson - they will be dealt with like this." The sweet-faced, blonde detective didn't seem in the least bit apologetic - presumably they don't have an "IPCC" to second-…

Girls came home from school with the newsletter today, I won't bore you with the date of the school photograph etc however this was the first bit of information, will have to type it word for word...

http://www.policeoracle.com/news/Presumed-Guilty_20226.html Is this Henry Porter for real, or is he just another Guardian Hack. I always thought police work was all about targetting criminals and people suspected of crime. Maverick222009-09-16 08:16:53

A good and useful piece or Labour Legislation, or just another example of well meaning stupidity and control-freakery? This scheme comes into force from October 2009. The new ISA (Independant Safeguarding Authority).... a 'step too far', or a requirement to enhance Child and Vulnerable Groups Protection? Is this ISA independant from whom - the government? What nonesense!! "The road to hell is pave with good intentions" like many a badly drafted piece of Labour legislation. If the Labour Government, ah, yes our Labour government..... is so concerned about this matter, then why was the current CRB Vetting system not enhanced/amended and changed to include these new …

Hello. First of all I have a confession to make. I have posted my views on this forum before and was subsequently barred. I believe my views on the G20 policing were not appreciated by what as I saw were pretty biased users. However I return with something I hope you will appreciate. This is a statement I sent through our organisation to the team we liase with for media related matters at the Met and in case it doesn't trickle down I'd like to pass it on to you as well. I am a photographer working for AFP news agency and I regularly cover demonstrations in London and around the country as part of my job. I am writing to you to praise the work of all the offic…

http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-1211896/Police-force-puts-239-new-bobbies-beat-cutting-tea-biscuits-banning-email.html I would be very interested to see exactly where all these savings were made, obviously not just from less tea and biscuits, and no emails on two days of the week. It all sounds a bit like a fairy tale and should start ''Once upon a time....................

http://www.policeoracle.com/news/Moors-Murderer-In-Scots-Jail-Move_20209.html Another Scunbag trying to jump on the bandwaggon. I'm sure there are plenty of people who would be happy to help him die.

The astonishing twisters captured by storm-chasing photographer http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/worldnews/...r-Jim-Reed.html Always found Twisters fascinating. Here people would complain about the road being closed. :lol:

What a numpty, wish all vandals got thier comeuppance!!

If you're stuck for something to do/watch, tune in C4 at 2100! Emotional film staring Nicholas Cage about two cops trapped inside the WTC, but it's a great film to watch.

Could I please pick your collective brains? I have a Working Cocker Spaniel (not that he does any work! ). I've had him for nine & a half months or so & he's at a guess, around about eighteen months old now. He's a rescue dog & very obedient in regards to coming to call, sitting, laying down etc & waiting to be told he can have his food before he makes a dive for the bowl. So really, for his age he is very well behaved. The only problem I have with him is him pulling on the lead when he's taken for walks. He's taken for walks daily so it isn't that he's not getting out enough & the only way I can stop him pulling me over is to use a choke chain …
