💥PODCAST OF THE WEEK How many folk do you know that are both criminal barrister and police officer? From an unique position we discuss the judiciary, the police service AND how, perhaps we can improve it. It’s a conversation filled with brevity and humour 🌱 audioboom.com/posts/836547...

@imcmillan.bsky.social Help me out here please. My wife has today baked the most wonderful fruit cake. I said it would be lovely with some custard. She said that in Yorkshire it would be eaten with cheese. Is this correct?

I have now finished Lana Boland’s book AFTERSHOT. After all it’s only fair to read it before you interview the person herself. I’m really looking forward to this interview as part of my mini series on police wellbeing 🌱 #policewellbeing

Certainly not being paid for this. I have to say the @Sontronics podcast pro microphones are great for mobile work. Great noice reduction, lightweight and brilliant build quality. What’s more they are a British product. This is my set up for travelling to important interviews.

The end of an era. Blackpool police station has been demolished. We all left in 2018 to go to a new building. All that’s left are broken dreams, shattered lives, tales of unbelievable bravery and incredible sacrifice. It was never about the building but the people inside. ##blackpool #police
