PC Gray

Don't know how well this will translate to the written word, but here
goes anyway.

We had a visit from Ricky, our community policeman. He had done the
stranger danger talk and we had asked a lot of questions then we got to
look at some of his equipment. The truncheon cause particular interest.
Alan was fair jumping up and down in his seat.

"Ricky! Ricky! go on hit my arm with your truncheon"

Ricky.
." If I hit your arm with this you would never EVER be able to use it
again"

**Alan stopped and thought for a moment, then held out his left arm**

"Ricky ! Ricky! do it to this arm, I don't need this one!"
