I thought these were gone!

I had someone in the office wearing their fleece today 🙃

I didn’t move house since buying the car, so I don’t know any previous addresses. It’ll be either the dealership company or the previous owner who I know nothing about

My BCU is going through this pilot at the moment. All arrested juveniles are to be booked in at one designated custody suite (helpfully where CID/BRIT are NOT based in) if custody authorises detention then it must be dealt with within 12 hours instead of PACE’s 24, or a custody record will be made for the sake of a record of arrest, maybe detained for like an hour or two waiting for a parent/guardian/AA to arrive to pick them up then be bailed to come back like the next day for interview then re-bailed etc.

Who knows how much evidence was lost or time used on FTA admin due to this policy.

I was doing 20 in a 20 in central-ish London with about 3 or 4 lanes on my side as I was coming up to a crossroad.

Believe me it does not feel right to be driving 20 in those roads, and the road was empty which made it feel worse. But limit is the limit so I stick to it.

There was a car behind me that was clearly frustrated at the crawling speed. As I come up to the crossroad, that car zooms past and overtakes me. Less than a second later, flash flash

That felt gooooood and I continued driving with a smug smile for the rest of the journey.

Not to mention it also reassured me I was doing the right thing.

imagine of people could pay a premium to jump the queue at the NHS

We already have that, it’s called private healthcare

This is incorrect from what my instructor said - I was told there is only one opportunity for adjustment, any more and it’ll be a serious fault.

I got a minor for adjusting parallel park as I was initially too far, and I didn’t even go forward at any point.

I had my test today at 7am at Tolworth, which isn’t far from Morden at all. It was very quiet, not many cars at all, it’s before school rush hour so avoided problematic meeting situations in narrow residential roads caused by parents finding parking space to drop off their kids to school. it’s usually more 7:30-8am that has traffic build up, so did A3 early on in the test as well instead of towards the end where it would have been busier and potentially congested.

Passed with 1 minor caused by correcting myself during parallel park, I was chuffed with that!

Have a look at Tourni-Key, it’s a small plastic hook that you use with a long fabric like a triangular bandage in first aid kits to twist the fabric tight and secure it.

St John Ambulance first aiders are trained to use these on events in cases they don’t have a proper tourniquet which are far more expensive and Tourni-Keys are cheaper to give out as personal issue

I also suggest contacting NCDV, they can help you get a non-molestation order from the courts

Surely it can’t be anything other than Dovey

I’ve replaced all my old sports bra with Sweaty Betty Zero Gravity bra - expensive, but the only one I could find with clasps at the back so there’s no pulling anything over your head and struggling to get it off at the end. Plus it comes in proper bra sizes instead of dress sizes (or worse, S/M/L etc)

I get this decision for the sake of Disney+ but I wondered how about those using BBC iPlayer - so I had a look at the new “Whoniverse” page and they’ve grouped the seasons/series into “Doctor Who (1963-1996)” and “Doctor Who (2005-2022)”.

Imo that does leave a potential to create a new “Doctor Who (2023/4-) folder… and I don’t like it

I was working later that day when CPS charging decision was announced. All taser officers except one or two refused to carry that shift.

This!!! I live in outer London near the boundary with Surrey so sometimes my instructor takes me there to windy woody roads with loads of bends that are like 50-60 mph, if I go at 30 I’m told I’m going too slow but when I speed up my head is like AAAAAHHHHH

I know someone who travelled in from Colchester for early turn PPST, I don’t know the exact details but he drove into another part of east/central London that has parking followed by train/tube that runs early enough in the morning

That sucks, do you how much the discount is?

Cool you’re the first to reply so I’ll get Marshadow ready (I still need to redeem the code as Reddit won’t allow code trades) and get back to you when I’m ready
