Hi, did anyone see the police on "riot training" last night? I live close to the police station and could hear some commotion outside at around 2 (I think) in the morning, so sent the husband to look out the window. Apparently there were about 25-30 policemen in full riot gear outside the police station, also two vans and an ambulance. Most of the noise was coming from the ambulance driver who was "nattering" at the top of her voice. The husband also spotted a senior officer (wearing a cap, dead giveaway) and a couple of plainclothes policemen who has radios strapped to their chests (also a giveaway). They had one of those battering-rams you see on TV breaking into gun-dealers homes and even had some "dog-catching" gear i.e. loops on long sticks. Husband said "Hmmm, I hope they aren't coming in here...." Despite the excitement, I didn't bother to get out of bed but according to husband "they then all lined up like schoolchildren in a long crocodile formation and trotted down Whateley Road with all their gear". I've been scanning the forum but no one has mentioned it. Was it a dream??
