This morning the news reported copycat riots starting in Liverpool and other cities. Stay safe Dave, GP, Kapri, and others who I may have failed to mention but in our thoughts nonetheless

Thanks Chaps... Have had to dig my uniform out. Haven't worn it for more than three years. Sitting in my office now waiting for deployment.
Fair to say worst disorder in living memory and has stretched the emergency resources like nothing has ever done (including terrorist attacks).
Some are likening it to the blitz....
Would much rather be talking about coin op....

Oh Wow Dave! I didn't know it was that bad. You and your family are in our thoughts and prayers. Does the Uk have a national Service type system that everyone is basically in reserve status? Please stay safe.

Dave, I hope that you, your family and the other officers stay safe. If I remember right your wife is an officer also so keep each other safe and maybe the idiots will find justice....

Thanks everyone. Not too bad where I am, just a few 'hard lads' trying to prove themselves.
Hope you're OK Dave, stay safe.

GP REPORTING FOR DUTY DAVE.....
well better late than never............
anyway, whilst dave is keeping the nation safe....
i have been driving thru the various hot spots in my
little van, [manchester, birmingham and then london]
to keep an appointment with the son of an old slot
machine operator thru the late 50's 60's and early 70's
so whilst dave has been dusting down his old uniform
i was up the ladders in the loft sifting thru 30 years
of black dust and grime to see if there was anything
worth salvaging from the old guys old workshop shed.
found load of oldwrigleys beechnutvendors for dave and
a 21 trade stimulator & half a dozen old slots in varying
states of decay but mostly complete including a x4 reel
bellomatic, a caille grand jackpot, mills extraordinary and
another as yet unnamed but probably mills variant of some
description together with some old locks and keys & a box
full of old mechanical payout slides................................
pix tomorrow if i wake up!
best regards GP
