Working in a (closed) kiddies indoor play place - and had to listen to Radio One on full volume all day!
The DJ's seemed to have an IQ slightly above that of a frog - and the "music" consisted of black rappers (or white rappers trying to sound black) muttering incomprehensible rubbish to exactly the same backing.
And Policemen are getting younger....

Your PPE does not include ear defenders?
I noticed that years ago.

I was stopped in the street by some teenagers. "Which house does Liam Payne live in? He's just moved in. You know - Liam Payne of One Direction."
Who's he?

So what have you done wrong to involve the police?

I can remember asking one if he was on a YTS scheme.

No doubt that went down well.
I'm not really sure when I last saw a real policeman, except zipping by in a patrol car. The ones on foot are now invariably community police officers, who often seem to be female and overweight, even allowing for them wearing stab vests.

I was getting a bollocking for doing something wrong/stupid whilst I was pissed up - probably having a piss in an alleyway or something similar.
Our village still has a proper police station and the Seargent still does a walk around with the pantomime bobbies AKA the PCSOs.
I assume you have seen this

I think less of the PCSOs the the video makers.

They've closed and I think sold our Police Station and opened an office. You need to make an appointment... Mind you the old station rarely had anyone in it they were always out on patrol, so no great change.
Trouble is the coppers that were based there are now based 20 odd miles away. The "Neighbourhood Police Team" is a total of eight, that includes one Inspector, one Sargent, and one PCSO. How eight can provide 24/7 cover, when taking into account sick and holiday relief, I'm not quite sure... Oh did I mention that cover is for >100 sq miles and they can be called to incidents anywhere in the NW corner of Cumbria from the far side of Carlisle NE wards.
Of course as very little happens here that needs Police attention we hardly ever see them these days. Most (uniformed) coppers I've seen for a long time was yesterday, a total of three, but then HRH Prince of Wales was visiting.

I agree, that would be torture. What I find unutterably depressing is that there is so much fine music of all kinds, all over the world, yet people listen to (is that the correct term?) such atrocious crap.
