End of Week 4

Mr Bill was in a local town to meet up with the rest of the emergency services who operate in our area. I guess it must be easier to get to know them in an informal situation rather than at the scene of an accident. Unfortunately, with a refurbishment going on, the promised breakfast at the fire station did not materialise :-(

Mr Bill has been spending a great deal of time in an attempt to remain current with paperwork - and he hasn't even arrested anyone yet :-)
He has to keep his notebook up to date with what he has been doing and he also has to answer some mind-numbing questions for the NVQ all police officers now complete as part of their training. Questions such as: How will what you have learned about community affect your work as a police officer?- which have common sense answers but it has taken him ages to put it all down on paper - some poor sap has to read them all now too. Mr Bill was let home early today as he has been so good at keeping his notebook written up properly. So he got home and started reading up for next week when he will learn about taking statements, identification and powers of arrest amongst other things.

All in all it has been another pretty busy week for Mr Bill so he is looking forward to sitting down and having a beer or two and watching some TV. However, I think there might be a few little jobs lined up for him ......
