What a day. . .

Spent all last evening with a father at the beach as his 19 year old was being recovered from the swell. He never stood a chance. Had to be with dad as he identified his son. Im used to dead bodies now, but when hes 19 years old it kind of hits home in a much more visceral way. I shortly have to go and open the coroners inquest, and later on have the onerous task of again dealing with dad to take a full statement. I like to think Ive been sensitive, and of some confort in this unbelievably trying time for the poor man, but am painfully aware that later on I have to go and pull some very fresh scabs off of those mental wounds. Some days I wouldnt do this job for all the money in the world, and yet have to.

In other news about a girl, things are much better today, weve talked and she wants to keep the lines open, so thats all good. Ive left it in her hands.

Can I have a Wii pweeease?!?!?

Youve had a sucky couple of days mate but at least something has happened with you and your friend. I always feel the police force have to deal with the scum of the earth and deal with the shit. It doesnt suprise me at all that you guys have high divorce rates, psychological traumas etc.\r Just remember youre doing a fine job and although people sometimes have hate for the big blue you keep our streets safe, well sorta.
