OMG  where in London?

Frith Street. Just across from Bar Italia.

Issy, in Germany police have been armed for as long as I can remember and, although I don't agree with it, it doesn't look surreal to me.

Did he help you though, is the question? 

Whitehall

Well I suppose it is to be expected right by the Ministry of Defence.
I just haven't been to that part of London for years and it threw me a bit.
They were really friendly though and very helpful.

I suppose so Cologne and the times call for the measures but I was standing right up close to them and as naive as this may sound I have never seen a real gun before,

Really helpful Sprout


*waves at velvet to save posting another response..

that is a daily occurance   where i work     the police  know me off by heart  av gave so many statements

Where do you work?
At a dead secret important place?

3 times in 2 weeks  bookies down from us got robbed but our shop camera's   never picked it up , only covers us ........ but CID  is always in

forgot to add all the stabbings      aside  ........ yes i'm a nervous wreck

well they are ever hopeful in case the cameras did pick something up.


Are the CID armed?

Are you not down at the Palace Grounds madamski? 

no but gawjuss  lol

I was going to make a remark about size of weapons...

But they are not armed

velvy naw . b/bnk centre    the hotbed of murder , i know its not funny , i;m  in the middle of it 

Nope - I was at the QEII centre in London... opposite Westminster Abbey.

I got so lost so asked a policeman cos that is what my Mum always told me to do if I got lost.

Oh blimey Velvet - I have just spoken twaddle to you cos I thought you were talking to me..

I forgot Auntie Fester used to be Madamski.

I got all mixed up 

It was more scary in Nigeria where you don't really know if they are legitimate police who stop you with great big machine guns, staring at you through the window and you try desperately not to look at them. Mind you, I was one of those mad people that loved the adventure and we were lucky and never encountered bandits.

some of the CID  are missing their vocation 

Mad loony woman

OMG  cologne  ................... i prefer my resident junkies

Try and get out/transfer madamski - don't want you getting compromised for the sake of a job 

Nuthouse that joint  

I was trying to find a photo with the guns, but can't, so I thought I download a nice one with lots of spices and colour.

Well thats a lovely photo anyway Cologne..

What we see here.

I know Lee, despite the peace talks, it'll never go back to a bobby on the beat.

av been to doc ....  he even said he wont work there    wont give me anything tho  

Thats about it Lee.

Phwoar!

I thought that ditty, but I wanted to test the water first and take it seriously.  

Get on the waiting list for the Palace 

You can't be expected to work and give evidence  

I'm always interested in how you're getting along madamski 

I hesitated..    but its the short sleeves, the body armour, ...  well the whole set up...  

they just look... phwoar!

I know ditty, drop dead.
Edit: Not even short sleeves, rolled up. Why does that make a difference.

Round about 1972 I found myself on a bus in Paris. Some fillete had complained about a drunk who had tried to sexually assault her, although i didn't know that at the time. A policeman, an agent, or a gendarme, who cares, alighted and tried to remove the very refreshed local from the bus. The guy wouldn't move and the cop drew his gun and started hitting the bloke with it. Reader! I nearly shat! Thirty years later I was in a Thalys a few minutes after Aachen when the Polizei entered my wagen and started hassling a citizen. They obviously knew who they were after. As the lent over the other side of the aisle I could see that they were festooned with all sorts of gear including big guns. I quickly yet deftly made my way to the toilet where I had what I now know to be my first and only panic attack.

I dunno!  but it does!   its weird
