Well today we have had the M6 blocked off due to a bomb scare (van parked next to the petrol pumps on the services ) and an air Pakistan plane heading for Manchester being escorted by fighter jets to standsted airport due to two nutters trying to get into the cabin . Day five of riots all over Sweden over police shooting a non Swede carrying a machete is there a common denominator to this ?
Always an eventful Station having managed it for 13years. The most eventful when a huge bomb went off in Tooley street which shook the very foundation and to think my Blade was parked outside.
Masterblader, you able to give any info on what happened tonight. Guess for next few weeks going to be lots of false alarms.
Sorry Alblade retired from there many moons ago, even a BTP mate has no info. It has become a big tourist attraction all along the river and was surprised to see how its all changed when I walked down to Tower Bridge during the Olympics, the current terror this week has heightened Police presence.
Jimbo, I asked one of them if he knew Bruce Smart but he'd never heard of him - he's clearly not famous yet...
Ha ha. Fat chance, the met is the biggest employer in London I think... Besides, they are prob armed response, Bruce is protection, totally diff thing I think.
