Lone guard

Lone guard
This stretch of pavement, though usually inhabited by a variety of police vehicles, on this occasion played host to a single, unoccupied, unmarked car, accompanied by a similarly solo officer, marked out in contrast for all to see.

Alfie

Alfie
Apparently Alfie's a bomb dog. According to the little card the police officer gave me when I expressed an interest in Alfie, this means that he's highly trained in sniffing out explosives, rather than that they regularly feed him nitro-glycerine or Semtex. Which is something of a relief. Anyway, he wasn't getting any of my biscuit, cute or not.

Breaker breaker, ten-four good buddy

Breaker breaker, ten-four good buddy
I guess I'm probably idealising the police argot somewhat. Particularly when they're surveying some union march or something.

A quick backward glance rendered two transport police the endpoint of a swirl.
