I've just timed my PC to see how long it took to boot up, 17 minutes, 17 minutes!!!!!
And this is with the strong tea?Constable Dunstable's predecessor, PC Laissez-Faire, just needed a, "Mornin Fred!" to be be wide awake and raring to go.*
*'Raring to go' is not an objective measure. Let's just say, "Raring to go by his standard."

Get your story straight. A good barista would make mincemeat of you in the witness stand. "Would you sprinkles with that?" All that kind of caper.

Capers? With coffee? Good good, man!
You have to thank Gordon Blue's meteoric rise through the ranks for that. Recruited from the cafe next door in 1973 he's now the Custody Sargent at Trivton Magna Precinct House.
Morning all 
I was in the vicinity a while back and chanced upon "Lucky Dip Lorna" leaving there with what looked suspiciously like her undergarments dangling out of a Poundland carrier bag.
I assumed the premises had been turned into some sort of social housing thing? Seems I was wrong, maybe it's part of some sort of undercover operation. Who knows.

I have to say I wasn't aware that the Precinct House was still operational these days?I was in the vicinity a while back and chanced upon "Lucky Dip Lorna" leaving there with what looked suspiciously like her undergarments dangling out of a Poundland carrier bag.

Is he the one who introduced an unsuspecting public to mashed banana and coleslaw sandwiches?!?!
I suppose banana and coleslaw sandwiches are OK per se, but I wouldn't fancy them mashed.Good morning everybody.
Caper sprinkles? Sounds like something the Tartars would do.
Heathens.
Sorry I'm late, I would have posted earlier, but I thought I'd give you all a head start.
Who has eaten all the chocolate Victoria mini sponges?

Do those two still frequent The Sailors Sack down by the docks????
The last time I saw them, they were on the beach at Trivton-on-Sea, down between the groynes. Luckily they were both rather busy and didn't spot me that time.But I do still have the spots from the previous time...
Can't seem to shake the buggers off.

Trivton Magna Precinct House has indeed been closed for some time, although the Chief Constable can be seen regularly coming and going and vice versa. DickyC said:

Constable Dunstable has been diligently working from home throughout the pandemic, closely monitoring goings on at the old Police Station via his zoom thing.
The Regional Police Operational Command and Control Centre has been relocated to the old meat packing factory on the industrial estate about two miles off the Trivton Bypass, conveniently well away from any bus route, with absolutely no parking facilities and an undisclosed telephone number.
You can try to contact them online if you wish, but good luck if you're expecting a response.
At least the rate of recorded crimes has plummeted since the relocation, so it proves that it was definitely a clever move.
Local businessmen seem to be quite happy with the current situation, and say that at last they can ply their trades without unwanted interference.
The Old Precinct House is enjoying a good turnover, so everyone's happy, especially the Chief Constable.

Whilst you are all noshing, I thought I might update residents with details of the capture and debrief of Old Gusset.
Having spent weeks dodging all attempts at capture, OG was finally discovered hiding in the old Cold War bunker under the Slaughterman Daughter's Arms. The smell of brewing the Spring Thunder Ale had, until yesterday. disguised her spore and a search of the underground tunnels, using the latest technology, finally discovered the hiding place.
Lo and behold, Old Gusset turns out to be none other than Herr Hauptmann 'Ginger' Beckenbrukker who went missing in '42 from Pequod Hall POW camp and has been in hiding, disguised as an old hermit, ever since!
I have made the North (secure) wing of PH available for the fellow to acclimatise to his new situation.
He was holding a picture of the Brigadier when captured ...
I'm still trying to figure out just how he survived so long out there, with the locals being the way they are!?!?! Let alone ApO's security dogs roaming about!!!!Having spent weeks dodging all attempts at capture, OG was finally discovered hiding in the old Cold War bunker under the Slaughterman Daughter's Arms.

The security in this place is in serious need of a thorough review and there is still the question of why Herr Hauptmann was clutching a signed photograph of the Brigadier...
