There were LOTS of Police in Thatcham Broadway at lunchtime today, far more than you ever see in a whole year.

Anyone know what was going on? I thought a Big Issue chugger was being arrested.

Anyone know the facts?

Yes

I'm not the one who knows.

Don't be horrid, he can manage a Red Bull, paint his tyres orange, and count HGVs passing the window.
All in the space that one could ..... I am lost for words.

They often do some kind of training in Thatcham Broadway. Usually they put up a couple of signs saying something like "Police Training Operation in Progress" or something like that. They often place one of the signs by the entrance to the Waitrose shop. Last year I saw these operations about 5 times - the first time it does seem odd seeing about 20 of these offices milling around!

Doughnuts on sale?

Doubt it.

Now if it had been free doughnuts.......

Nah, they would have been expensed if it was a training exercise.
