just a quickie.... (update that is)

Posted by elloelloello , 22 March 2011 - - - - - - · 193 views

wow, has it really been a few months since my last post?

What have I been up to I hear you ask? (or maybe not). Well, not much other than the usual stuff, going to work, selling the house and the inevitable house-hunting that goes with it.

Duty has been a bit of a mixed bag.

I spent 8 days assisting with the training of the explosives dogs (not dogs that...

My New Year Eve.... I had the choice of:

a/ spending a small fortune on getting in to a crowded nightclub, waiting ages to be served, being charged a princely sum for a small bottle of un-pronouncable beer and then get battered to death by all and sundry that attempt to pass the dance-floor

b/ sit indoors watching TV on own (other half was on duty)

So after lots and lots of emails and memos in the past reminding us about social media networking sites and how we should be carefull, I now have a facebook profile with a picture of me (taken from my attestation) in uniform, it feels really strange!

No I havnt ignored all that I have been told, I am actually taking part in an official study in to...

What a month its been since my last blog!

Lots and lots of patrol! Since gaining IP (Independant Patrol) status it's been nice taking the occasional walk on my own and also crewing with various PCSO's (they do a great job, they are the knowledge bank of who's who of the majority of the local tear-aways ner-do-wells).

So the next...

Brighton Pride 2010

Posted by elloelloello , in Brighton, Gay Pride, Uncategorized 16 August 2010 - - - - - - · 136 views

From 7.30am on Saturday 7th August 2010 I ignored my nagging alarm clock every nine minutes and at 8.06am I contemplated another 9 minutes of 'snooze' due to only having 4 hours of sleep.

Last week I found myself infront of my PDO (Professional Development Officer) for my final 'knowledge check' before awarded with IP (Independant Patrol). Initially a truely nerve racking experience where I could barely remember my name, let alone the important stuff I have been putting into practice...

Okay, as computery type bloke and a person that likes his Internet, has all the gadgets known to the western world, you'd have thought I'd know what blogging is all about, well to be honest, I had shut my eyes and ears to all this blog nonsense until a few evenings ago when my partner was enjoying his stint of late shifts on response I thought...
