Guest Posted September 15, 2017 Share Posted September 15, 2017 15th of September 1975, I was starting my first day in the Police service. Seems like a lifetime ago.... Why the sad face? After reading some of your stories from your time in the police, it sounds like it would be something you should be happy and proud to have done. A life well spent! Many people have made poor life choices but, you sir, sound like you made a good one and if anything you should be celebrating that decision.

TC1474 Posted September 15, 2017 Author Share Posted September 15, 2017 Why the sad face? The sad face is because it dawned on me that many of you were still probably no more than a twinkle in your Dad's eye when I started and it makes you realise how fast time passes.On the plus side, I am glad that I no longer serve.

My dad was only 15!In all honesty though mate, huge respect for everything you did. Absolutely LOVE reading your posts on here, very rarely have I not learned something. The amount of wisdom you can shine on situations is incredible. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TC1474 Posted September 15, 2017 Author Share Posted September 15, 2017 The Sweeney son Really? Don't compare what we did back then based on what you say on the Telly (although that was true to life and my voice guest starred a few times on the radio as they used TVP radio traffic ) The Flying Squad were a law onto themselves and only worked the Met, but the Police service in general was nothing like they portrayed it, and discipline was very different to what it is now.

Mawsley Posted September 15, 2017 Share Posted September 15, 2017 Anybody trying to attempt to say that the police force wasn't bent AF in the 70s & 80s is talking out of their arse.West Midlands Crime Squad?Yorkshire during the miner's strike?Getting protesters pregnant while undercover?I could go on (and on, and reference it all). Safe to say that Six isn't a million miles from what took place the length and breadth of the country on a weekly basis.And on that note - I'm off for beer and a meal of Desperate Dan proportions.
