I walked into a right royal rant at Sarah's house this morning. Her dad was reading this week's edition of The Week magazine - he and I often chew the fat over his excellent coffee while discussing the week's woes.
I've reproduced the cover here to show you what set her going; and after she had vented her spleen, we had a reasoned conversation that she agreed to let me reproduce on her blog 'News From The Nick'.

I was round at Sarah's dad's last Saturday morning. You may remember Sarah, my young friend who is a Police Officer. Over the as usual, excellent coffee I listened to her having what amounted to a mini-rant combined with a surprising crisis of confidence.
Risking Sarah's wrath for the sake of art - well blogging at any rate - I convinced her that she should engage in another cathartic jotting down of her experience.

Many of you will remember my friend Sarah Didsbury, a serving Police Officer, who for a time wrote a popular blog about her work. I agreed when, as happens with young people, life, love and other pursuits took precedence, to carry on posting occasionally if the whim took her.
On Saturday sat chatting, drinking coffee with her and her dad, an ex-sergeant himself, she was sharing her feelings following the memorial service for Michael Todd. Her dad, usually a critic of blogging and other such works of the devil, was keen for her to share her views so here they are: a new post from Sarah Police Lady.
Whilst passing the time of day over a cup of tea with Sarah Didsbury's father, he happened to mention that she had only the other day shared an amusing Police type anecdote across the dinner table. Sarah gave me permission to re-tell the sorry tale as she skipped past us both with youthful vigour leaving only a fragrant cloud behind.

Many of you may remember my friend Sarah's blog: The Slim Blue Line; Sarah described life in the UK cops for girls and also shared some of the lighter moments of her life in the police. I've been meaning to do something with her posts for a while and have now created an archive for them here. Alternatively you can go there from the link further down the left hand side of this page. I intend occasionally, with her permission, to recount some of the tales she still cannot help but share with me and will let you know when I put anything new on the site. In the meantime I've transferred what Sarah likes to call 'News from the Nick' which are tales of some of the embarrassing moments she and her colleagues occasionally have.
