Thanks Shuvi! I'll plead in my defense that I am Australian so missed the British bobby sayings. Plus we are suffering smoke inhalation so brain function is reduced.
I am sure there are plenty of (younger) brits that would also not know about or notice Letsby Avenue!Hope the fire thing gets sorted, I understand that some environmentalists and fire fighters? Have been busted for starting some of them??

need some help and maybe a parrot...
I was initially suprised that someone might not get that reference but google now only seems to link to Delia Smith's 'let's be having you' rant.It used to be a police meme before memes existed. As in 'Now then, Now then, Let's be having you' (Letsby Avenue)

Letsby Avenue is where the police houses where. These were where policeman lived and ate and slept. They were very fond of stew for its warming qualities on night shift. Irish stew was a particular favourite. Irish stew in the name of the law.
I hear they also had a fondness for truncheon meat. "A man has denied wielding a seagull in a fight with a cafe customer."
