Do Notts police still own the launch that used to be based around Trent Bridge ? and if not what happened to it?

Yes, they just have the one rib ( inflatable ). Not seen the old launch on the river for many years, they don't seem to patrol like they used to, they're more reactive and use the helicopter. The Environmental Agency seem to do more river work these days.

A few years ago when talking to a BW supervisor I mentioned that I liked a launch parked near Trent Lock, he said that it was an ex police launch passed to BW but it was not good and no use to them, it had the wrong hull shape and was difficult to steer on a canal, not seen it since. Go's to prove that good looks aren't everything.

What does a policeman have for his lunch ? ;)

Mmm, a hard one to get your teeth into. Beats on toast? a nice bacon baton or, if bizzy, a jam sandwich and a quick copper tea!

I know, sorry, already got me coat on. :rolleyes:
