If they had drones chasing suspects instead of overgrown boy-men in cars there would be fewer fatalities from Police chases.
Was whatever the suspect was doing worth almost killing a cyclist over?

We need to rethink this whole thing, car chases just seem like some childish game where somebody innocent gets hurt usually.

Hmmmm. I just saw on someone's profile that where they live is "not as nice to live in as it is to visit, but then few places are". I am clearly blessed to live in #ThorntonHeath, which is a far better place to live than to visit.

As it's Tuesday, here are some pictures from #TodaysWalk last Wednesday, when I visited Thornton Heath.

There, while admiring the historic and doubly-arsonised clock tower, I stumbled across one of The Stones of Croydon.
