At least it gave me and Madz something to talk about in between the barfing.
Funny thing about it was that there wasn't the usual blockade outside the entrance. If there were any criminal types in there they'd have had to wait for the helicopter to land before they could chase them.

It's not been up there for two and a half years has it?
My understanding of it was that it was in the air last night, but also 2 and a half years ago at a similar time. Garinda did say that he heard it last night as well, but chucked a “funny” in to highlight that it was an old post.
yeah think willow was chucking a "funny" in reply...willow for goodness sake woman...use the smilies
lol I usually do have a in my posts - dunno where the blighter beggared off to in that one. 
in my posts - dunno where the blighter beggared off to in that one. police helicopter was called out to find a young male who the police had chased in his car, he crashed the car into frankos restaurant then did a runner leaving his girlfriend injured in the car, what a nice lad, i think not.
A big thank you to Lancashire constabulary for waking me up at about 5 0`clock this morning when it sounded like the bloody thing was trying to land in my back garden ,all this was going on around the `Accy Stanley` area of town.....anyone know what was going on.......?
Doing what exactly? Testing their engines? Putting the beam on Cashman after he'd been barred from another Ossy pub? Just think - it cost's about 600 quid an hour to keep one of these birds in the air so it is somewhat unlikely that the Lancashire Constabulary would have been 'Out and About' over Ossy on an aerial Country Run.
However, if it was the case then maybe you could write a letter to LCC/Police Committee and ask 'em if the next time they decide to come on a lttle jaunt over Ossy maybe they could time it with the opening night of the latest theatrical production at t'town hall. Just Imagine...red carpet, flashbulbs, noise...and then...taccy..taccy..taccy...a big chopper suddenly appears over Straits with a hugh great spotlight underneath.
That's whats called being in the Limelight.
Lovely stuff.

I was woken up by the Police helicopter at 1.45 this morning, hovering over Bullough Park. Just checked the police website and found this;
20/06/11 01:45 Accrington Pre planned tasking Task completed
Now can somebody tell me why they need to do some form of 'exercise' in the middle of the night over a residential area. Surely they can get enough practice these days catching real criminals

to check peoples lofts with infra red this is how they catch 60% of drug growers

This made me laugh, why do they need to do it at night?
Have you ever used thermal imaging? We use it to determine problems with our mechanical and electrical equipment and we don't turn the lights off
Think they must have been practising catching um at night Dave
