Evening All
Well, what a turn up for the books - so far tonight I haven't had any contact with the Police whatsoever
Turns out the front door needs fixing, though - although it appears undamaged, the bit of the lock that the bit of the lock that goes into the other bit of the lock goes into has been forced out of position, so the lock no longer locks
Looking back at that sentence, I feel a career writing KB123456 articles for Microsoft coming on - it's tortuous enough to make the grade
Oh dear, http://support.microsoft.com/kb/123456 actually exists - a recondite bug relating to MSCDEX (which Zeity will doubtless remember) and which appears to date back to Windows 3.1Comment

But mentioning the Police...
Last Sunday, a female PC (apparently they aren't called WPCs any more) left her handbag in the pub, from which it was nicked. It had her phone, purse, keys, and - most importantly, one would think - warrant card (& badge) in it
The assistant manager had, upon being contacted by her, immediately secured the CCTV footage, and transferred the appropriate parts thereof showing the guys actually taking the bag to disc in the approved manner. However, having told the Police that he'd done this and could bring it round to the nearby Police Station, he was told not to bother, and they'd pick it up.
Today (Thursday, which is a bit after Sunday) some copper finally came round for it at about 2pm - when the place isn't open (they don't open weekday lunchtimes), but the manager happened to be around on the premises.
When the manager commented on the fact that it was one of their own, who had lost her badge and warrant card, said copper was surprised and said that he hadn't known that.
Anyway, the manager gave him the disc, and he left.
At about half past five, he phoned the pub: "Is that <landlord>? It's PC <copper> who was there earlier."
<landlord>: "Oh right, how can I help?"
<copper>: "Did I leave my hat there?"
<- most appropriate use of that smiley EVAH!Comment
