hi mate
i just coming up to 2 years in the police now and i joined when i was 39, i left a good job with good money as a workshop controller for a ford dealer to join the police and it was BEST thing i have ever done, it was less money to start with but it goes up with your length of service.

the only down side i that there are`nt many petrol heads in the police where i work.

if i can help at all give me a call (number will be PM'd) or if you are going to the totb look me up i am racing my mk1 escort.

cheers lee
