    Jockey state?

    Never been, but wouldn't mind going. Having said that, I heard trying to get beer is a right 'mare ( ).

    Finished down €13.50 over the three days, which I'm happy enough with...

    yeah its pretty lively alright.ended up getting a lift from centre
    of cheltenham town to our hotel in a police transit van.we witnessed a serious assault in a pub and i persuaded the two girl policewomen to give us a lift.

    there was a load of people outside our hotel when we got there.
    boy did we get some funny looks.van stops,3 paddies get out and say thanks very much girls, see yiz again

    No worse than anywhere else... Infact I'd go as far as saying their better than here - at least they are in someway accountable for their actions. Still Pigs though...

    one good thing about the cops over there is that there is an outside body inverstigating complaints and not one of their own like here......

    What ever about their street Cops their Immagration Contol/Customs &Exercise people need a right kick up the arse. I think they are a division of their Cops

    They're been a few times now when I've been on flights and been the only person taken aside, I also have happened to be the only Irish person on the flight. Have to stand there while two langérs with machine guns ask me why would and Irish person fly to Lyon from London

    I think McDowell is planning an Police Ombudsman Bill.
    Oh no not them again
