at the time of this helicopter passing overhead, i was walking down underhill road towards lordship lane and there were two police cars with flashing blue lights on hill court road, guess that was the source of tonight's action

I say confiscate their jumpers, that'll teach em ;)

Well that's really enlightening, thanks for that, I will sleep easy.

Any indication of what these police cars may have been doing there?

Any sign of Christmas trees or reindeers at all?

Helicopter overhead again ..... yawn ......

Surprisingly I didn't walk down hillcourt road to find out the nature of the incident as that would be rubbernecking, but I would imagine 2-3 police cars would indicate a fairly serious event

[sniffy]

You're right, that would be rubbernecking.

But lets be honest with ourselves Eclectic, the forum is basically a rubbernecking device for those without the balls to go out into the scary streets of ED and find out themselves ;)

You fellows have no idea what you're missing.

On a friday night my brothers Aubery and Hephaestion pop round so we can all enjoy what you're all clearly lacking. A police scanner. The fun usually kicks off at around eightish with a few minor pot dealers being dragged off their scooters. Pub fights normally start at midnight but it all fizzles out around then. For the real 'doors flying off hinges' action, you ideally have to be up around 4 to 6 a.m.

Weekdays are pretty bare, although the takeaway connoisseurs amongst us will surely benefit from all the appreciative radio messages between officers rating the dish they've just burped through to HQ.

[karter]

i wonder if it will be back again, tonight.

[Ted Max]

It is not possible to scan and listen in to police radio comms any more. This has been the case for 10 years in much of the country. Perhaps about 5 years in London.

It is still possible, however, to scan four pages of posts on a local internet forum generated by the astonishing fact of there being a helicopter, flying, in the sky.

[Roll Deep]

And they say Pigs can't fly.

[sniffy]

^Ha! I like what you did there... nice.
