The Return of the Bobby on the Beat
YES, (S)HE'S BACK! The afternoon of Tuesday 16th February witnessed the
first visit of a large police van containing two Police Community Support
Officers - Jonathan Hall 8888888 (Burwell) and Sue Loaker 8888888 (Swaffham
Prior, Swaffham Bulbeck and Bottisham). Why you may ask does Burwell have one
all to itself? Well, apart from being a sin-ridden flesh pot, Burwell pays for
Jonathan.
A Crier team was there to record this major event but too late to witness the visit by Dr Margaret Stanier who arrived with a bag of hair discovered on her sister's car exhaust. Margaret thought it came from an animal, we thought it was human hair, and the police adjudged it to be part of a wig. Shame - it could have been an interesting first case worthy of Miss Marple.
Because there was such short notice not too many people attended. Next time the publicity will be better, and meanwhile Sue will be writing the occasional notice for the Crier to keep everyone well-informed.
