Ruralshire personnel carriers – with grumpy PC!
A Kent Police Landrover Discovery – we want!
A night photo of the Essex ANPR Interceptor.
Possibly Staffs Police? – PC Copperfield’s old mob!
Five things we really like about Kent Police and Climate Camp:
1. The single room, en suite accommodation.
2. The quality and quantity of hot food and doggy bags.
3. The Tactial Holding Area organisation and facilities.
4. The professionalism and cheerful attitude of the Radio Operators.
5. The City of London PSU girls. What can we say; they are gorgeous!
Gadget Note: The City girls get a mention because of Thursday night at the THA. Those who were there will know what I mean!
The blue carriers are Cambs
shame that its just a southern get together
Yep.
Mind you there has been a bit of a Midland get together at the Bulldog Bash.
I’ve heard that photos of the COLPOL PSU WPCs are doing the rounds for hard cash – or at least, carrier cash: magazines, books, munchies…
PSU and COLPOL?………sorry to be thick
Police Support Unit
City Of London POLice
Woman Police Constable
Question is what kind of photos.
Papple – apologies, typed the abbreviations without thinking.
GB – All I can say is that at the moment they are apparently much prized in the met’s 3 area.
I haven’t seen them, so won’t pretend to be an expert. But a mate keeps promising to send them to me, if both of us can work out how to picture message; I’ve just got a new phone.
Captain Jack, and the purpose of your comment was?
8. ‘Captain Jack’
(Feels like an MG6)
Strengths and weaknesses of the case.
Er, hmmm.
My grandfather, many years ago, used to grab my puny little arms and squeeze my muscles and say, ‘Feels like a sparrow’s kneecap.’
Your strength is your honesty; your no-holds-barred indictment of all things ‘Police’ (and, apparently, ‘Laddish’.); your almost sensational proverbial correspondence betwixt our role and that of said Argos security … (who don’t even exist). Oh the inexorable juxtaposition!
Your weakness is your self. Or, yourself. It’s all in the grammatical descriptors; the cognitive computation. My great-grandfather was a copper during the Depression. I’m just a depressed copper. Mainly because of f*cking idiots like you. Wake up and smell the Special Brew.
I’m liking the navy blue vans. They’d go well with my departments shirts…..and my T-shirt that’s finally arrived. Cheers Boss!
Still cant quite get over the Essex interceptor. Tis like something out of a dream – or the end of Hot Fuzz. Ps jack give it up – you have been completely outwitted – sparrows kneecap to you.
The pics almost make me want to pick up a shield and do the run………………..but there again, hurry up and wait. wish I had the energy.
Ok who has these legendary photos of the City of London ladies… I keep hearing about it but no one actually seems to have the photo’s to prove it!!
I loved the blue carriers and want to know when I can get a go in the Essex interceptors
I will have to wait until my skipper is back for lates on Wednesday to hear all the war stories. And with any luck he will know what the photos show, and knowing him have a copy!!!!!!
Please to hear you approve of the accommodation at the University of Kent.
As a member of staff it is most bizarre to come to work and see the car parks brimming with Police vans etc.
Incidentally I gather that the crime rate has dropped on campus for the last week or so, can’t think why.
pao – your facilities management haven’t yet got around to reporting the criminal damage caused by the new diversity conforming ‘You’ve Met the Met’ stickers then!
ah yes, pao, sorry about that.
I’ve plenty of I’ve met the met stickers left if you want some to get revenge with…
pao – Have you retrieved the chair that Metro City taped up into the tree yet?
Boss – If you enjoyed looking at the COLPOL PSU girls, imagine how much fun it was for me as a WPC surrounded by men! Heaven! (especially as PSU instructor hubby was stuck at home, not allowed to come and play!)
Hi just been sent this blog from a fellow colleague . I hope you all had fun coming down to Kent . After attending the G8 a few years ago our serial was looking forward to an operation where we would actually put to use our skills we have learnt at the many days we have spent at PSU Training . But alas . The role of the Kent officer was to placate the poor innocent climate camp population.
Whilst the METS fully kitted up to take gate 6 we held the line in our flat caps.
We are still looking after the camp and there are still 40 -50 people who will not leave . I am sure our method of talking nicely towards them will eventually break them and they will leave of boredom.
In my last year I did a football duty.As it was a local derby we borrowed some City of London horses.Seeing one particularly fine specimen of horse flesh topped by a blonde WPC I approached it and the conversation was as follows
Sgt:Thats a lovely horse its sweating up a bit though
WPC: Yes you would be sweating up too if you were between my legs
I made my excuses and left.
PS I can write things like this as I am a MOP now-and I pay your wages-hang on but you pay my pension….
Not all of Kent officers fluffy!
We do seem to have had an influx of new vehicles recently from Carriers to Cell Vans, to GPV’s and ERV’s for that matter.
Have the purse strings been released or is it the like the olympics for Kent and we can’t be seen with crap or old vehicles as the host nation?
And they are new mind, none of this paying for them to be remarked to give the appearance. Well they could be and on false plates. I mean, who’s gonna know?

I think this rivals the Essex ANPR Interceptor. I’ve downloaded this pic. off the net but have also seen it in action and at public relation events. It always pulls a crowd! It’s also appeared on a certain reality TV police show.
