Egluntyne Posted November 30, 2007 Author Share Posted November 30, 2007 Bloomin' 'eck....the police helicopter is swooping around and around overhead at the mo! It is so low that it is almost touching the tree tops. Have just been out talking to Bert who is rebuilding my drystone walls and we could practically see the colour of the pilots eyes!! I don't know what is going on in Sheffield at the mo but it is rather worrying to put it mildly. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted November 30, 2007 Share Posted November 30, 2007 I'm not moving to Sheffield then! We had a helicopter over the fields behind our house one evening complete with search beams. Very scary. But it all turned out to be quite innocent. A woman was walking her dog when she slipped and fell into the ditch, breaking her leg. She was reported missing and the helicopter was searching for her - and found her. If it hadn't she may not have survived. It was really cold and she was lying in cold wet mud.

The Dogmother Posted November 30, 2007 Share Posted November 30, 2007 We're often woken up by the police chopper hovering over town in the night - part of a Saturday night out in Banbury. I used to work in an office which was on the flightpath for Brize Norton RAF base - things could get a bit low sometimes Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Egluntyne Posted January 26, 2008 Author Share Posted January 26, 2008 Remember this thread? Well...mystery solved. Read **this**. The newspaper printed photos of 20 or so of the ugliest beggers you have ever seen in your lives who were jailed. The little twerp was definitely one of them. Not a face you'd forget in a hurry. Unfortunately the link doesn't show pics. Just as well...I wouldn't want to give you nightmares. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ain't Nobody Here Posted January 26, 2008 Share Posted January 26, 2008 I was reading it (without realising it was started ages ago) thinking, this is familiar . What good news they've caught the scumbags. Not very long sentences though - they'll be out doing it again before long . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Dogmother Posted January 27, 2008 Share Posted January 27, 2008 Glad they got them! Shame about the typo in the headline though Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Egluntyne Posted January 27, 2008 Author Share Posted January 27, 2008 Didn't spot that! Some of the typo's in the newspaper have to be seen to be believed. They seem to have a thing about the word "of". "Couldn't of" "Shouldn't of" etc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
