Spotted...

pretty much, it got a start, middle and end, almost like a pantomime when the 4 officer came out of the van as if they were commanded by Inspector Japp of Scotland Yard.

AFAIK, I seen them being held in the van, but that all I remember.

Heh, they tried to throw my bike at me, but they couldn't as it was the heavy town bike.

Glad to hear you came out of it relatively unscathed, Ed. That could have turned nasty. It was lucky that they tried it on so close to Holborn Police Station.
