The New Management.

It appears that at the CTCC we have a bit of a problem. The troops are getting fed up with the constant management meddling and setting of targets, demanding the submission of statistical information relating to targets and just a little fed up with being deemed to be lazy or incompetent.
The Big Chief has told us [...]

Motive Question

A  woman, while at the  funeral of her own mother, met a guy whom she did
not know.  She  thought this guy was amazing.  She believed him to be her dream
guy, so much so that she fell  in love with him right there, but never asked for his
number and subsequently could not find  him.  A few [...]

The Dog’s don’t know any better.

It appears that for some, the trendy new weapon of choice has become our canine ‘pit bull’ type of dog. Thyere are still guns and knives about but there is an additional threat to worry about.
For those in the know, and often at the sharp end, there has been a worrying increase in the use [...]

From good, to bad, to worse.

Well the day began early, Olympics on the TV and my sudden and rather odd appreciation of the interesting and superb Olympic sport of the ladies beach volleyball. Female gladiators of the sand no less.

The athleticism, determination and skill levels of this new sport caused me to watch for a lot longer than I had [...]

At the CTCC there is a sudden and unexpected crisis being discussed at meetings within the inner sanctum of the SMT secret bunker. It appears that we are facing severe increases in our fuel costs for operational vehicles. This has resulted in a huge dent in the fuel budgets that the bean counters claim they [...]

We have got the official news from the Chief Superintendent that we are deemed to have been ticking all the right boxes. This [...]

Condolences

Anna had lost her husband almost four years ago. She was beginning to lose her social skills. This is one of the big things to learn to cope with after the loss of someone this close.
Her daughter was constantly calling her and urging her to get back into the world. After all, her mother was [...]

Late night shopping.

The radio crackles into life to disturb the otherwise deafening silence in my earpiece. The tone in the voice of the comms operator tells me that there is a code A on the immediate horizon.
‘Any unit near the shops, burglary in progress at shop  at number 16?’
Pinch me……………I am not far away. This is a [...]

The Lost Message.

“Its not about targets” comes the message from on high at the CTC Constabulary. The Chief is a tad concerned about the wrong message being sent out. Quality is far more important than fixing the stats with quantity to look good. We care about what we do, it is important to get things done in [...]
