    So my h2b is a police officer who has been on a shift of 7 nights. Today we were just to about to sit down to our Sunday Roast with our little girl when he got a call saying he was needed in London in riot gear for these pathetic idiotic scum that are causing caos down there. I haven't heard from him and all I can do is watch the news channels seeing that it's kicking off again tonight in Enfield - where is he? Enfield! I know we have a duty to support our other halves but this is killing me.

    I just wish he had a normal 9-5 boring desk job sometimes, but he would never be happy doing that so instead I have to grin and bear it I guess. Sorry needed a rant. x

    aw hun try not to worry. He will just be busy, his adrenalin will be pumping and he wont even realise that many hours have gone by.

    its what we train for.

    and you are right, these people are morons. I mean the bloke shot a police officer. What the hell did he expect back in return? a fooking box of chocolates?

    although my hubby isn't in the police force / armed forces etc i still struggle sometimes with his job

    he is a security cargo manager at a Freight Company..aka acompany that sends stuff for different businesses all over the world through air, land and sea..its a 24/7 company so they all go home at 5.30 but phones are always on to recieve calls , emails etc and you can imagine that its a pretty stressful and demanding job to be able to make sure things get sent and recieved on time and there's always Customs at the airport that can cause problems. Hubby leaves 6.30-7 most mornings...sometimes a bit later and doesn't get back til about 6 at night! ..even then he's still "on call" for anyone and often has to nip back into the office at night for a hour or so..maybe more and this annoys me..and on the weekends when its just him me and our son..he has to go in on a saturday or sunday or both...so its not bad enough that he ends up goin g back to work on a weekday evening but the weekend where its the only time he gets with us as a family

    Hope your h2b is okay. I live in South London and it's all kicking off here. H2B works between Lewisham and Catford and left work as soon as he could to get home as they got a call from the office in Lewisham saying that they could hear the riots starting again. My friend lives in Peckham and could see the smoke from a burning building from her house. Very scary and just hoping it doesn't make it's way closer to where we live. x

    Yeah Bristol decided to get in the act It just so stupid and horrible. These people dont think about the police as having families and loved ones. Really annoys me. I hope you H2b is okay. My thoughts are with all the police, fire and ambelence forces.

    Hi all, so sorry not been on it's been a bit manic. He came home yesterday after being on duty for 28 hours! He got some of them in a Chelsea jewellers and only got a bruised hand, he thinks he's invincible now lol. He's going back down tonight - after 111 officers have been injured how long before 1 or more are killed? To those of you b2b please be careful! And those of you who live in these areas where there's trouble - stay safe xxxx

    I know that he and his colleagues are really delighted with the support that the public are given them. It's just some of the press who show footage of some of the police being heavy handed that cause the trouble. I feel so sorry for the police officers who are damned if they are too soft and damned if they are too hard. It looks like it's all calming down now thank goodness - we're due to go to France next Friday for 2 weeks to book ou wedding venue - as it stands his leave has been cancelled - lets hope it stays calm and we get to have a break xx
