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?

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

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.

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.

    • Greg did an amazing job! He built a cabinet in my living room and added shelving. A lovely guy and perfectionist who goes the extra mile. He really understands what you want and comes up with various options to meet your price range. Would highly recommend!
    • I love the fact that virtually everyone held their hands out when furlough payments were made yet can't equate massive debt with massive cash payments to keep the economy ticking over.   
    • The problem with delivery people nowadays is that they are on such a restrictive schedule that they literally have to just try to deliver and run, otherwise they are penalised. I understand the frustration though.   And good luck making any kind of complaint to Evri. I once sold a laptop on ebay, took it to the Evri pick-up, where it was processed and it then went 'missing' between their pick-up place and the hub. Went through a long, long process where they offered me a desultory amount in compensation and I had to take them to small claims court before they came up with a fair offer the day before we were due to be in court. Long story short, Evri are shite.   Go to look at this forum for the number of people who have issues: https://nationalconsumerservice.co.uk/forum/183-postal-and-delivery-services/
    • I haven't had a rude EVRI delivery but last week I had an unexpected delivery at 10.42 pm. He didn't ring the bell or knock on the door (or rattle the letter flap) but just took a photo and put the box down.  If it hadnt been for the door camera giving us a beep we would never have known there was a parcel ready to sit there all night.
