My favourite day of the year!
A string of ‘recruits’ for the organ-harvesting operation present themselves right at my front door, and all it costs me is a couple of pumpkins and some candles 
Tonight we feast, my children!

My least favourite day of the year, enforced 12 hour shift and dealing with teenagers being idiots all night

Trick or treat the self consumed miscreants with your pava spray, the screams would be chilling in keeping with the night and the spirit of things.

LOL, read your reply here first and was very confused but over in politics it actually makes sense.

Chill mate - let Natural Selection do its work…
Yeah, and just ignore the collateral damage.
Seems to be the approach to modern policing round here…
Thankfully our team is on rest days, late lates for fireworks instead

Sales bloke that started same day as me left the company today. Don’t think he had a choice in the matter. Expect a few more ‘suchabody has left the company. We thank them etc etc.’ emails being sent round.
Got quite a decent unexpected bonus in my pay yesterday.
Went to the office today to help someone out. Had a nice chat with hr lady and it all seemed positive, but wouldn’t trust her tbh.
The senior engineer who has only worked for a couple of months this year after a knee/leg op does not seem to be coming back.
The lady who will be our manager after next week was all happy and talkative and bought donuts for everybody at lunch. I did not partake as am on a diet. (8lbs off in a month so far. Put that on in Germany over the summer).
So it all seems to be going okayish at the mo.
Be nice to get to Christmas and still have a job. Reckon I should be alright. Slightly less panicky now.

How bad is it your way? I am in Lewes this year, which is effectively one step away from the purge

Pretty bad, adding fireworks to the suron/balaclava mix will liven it up a bit.

Stopped at a red by the Bearpit roundabout on my hardtail yesterday. Electric Scooter knob sails through without noticing the car full of police. I look at the scooter knob, look back at the police and the driver nods and smiles and switches on the blues and twos. I pass them on Stokes Croft, chuckling as I hear scooter knob whining to two officers. Made my day.

If it was just a VOI or one from whoever the new provider is, what sanction can the police apply? FPN? Did scooter knob have a helmet on?
If it’s a rented scooter through an authorised scheme then the offence of failing to comply with a red signal would apply.
If a privately owned scooter then the above offence and the scooter will be confiscated for disposal as an uninsured vehicle.
Helmet is not compulsory on electric scooters.
