Police In Dub, The - Dubxanne

Advantages: Absorbing read, some humour
Disadvantages: Some stories are very shocking

...It?s reassuring to know that when an emergency arises & you need the police they are always at hand to help out. Well that is at least what I thought until recently, thanks too government interference things have changed considerably over the years & this particular book highlights what police life is really like in modern day Britain. ?Preventing the course of justice? by Inspector Gadget (a pseudonym for obvious reasons) starts off as being quite a light hearted read but by the second chapter you begin to realise how serious & frankly ridiculous modern police life has become. Today?s police forces are effectively working with their hand cuffs on & this book highlights the reality of it all. Inspector Gadget who was or still is a real police inspector, he doesn?t pretend that the old system was foolproof, he isn?t racist, right... Read review

Advantages: super for childs play
Disadvantages: no

...NEE NAA NEE NHAAA NEE NAAA. Watch out here come the police in the little tikes patrol police car, its been driven by a 4 year old the police man could be between the age of 1 and 5 as it will be big enough inside for them.

This police patrol car is a version of the cosy coupe you often see children driving around in these cars from little tikes are very popular in childcare settings This car is ideal for the playground or inside in a large space.

There is a roof over the top of the car it is not an open vehicle. (Ideal little Johnny then can... Read review

Advantages: Sharp, feisty and energetic
Disadvantages: It' only a EP and not a full album of their super tunes

...If only all young guitar bands were smart enough to rock out this fast, banging out seven first-rate mod-punk party-starters in barely more than sixteen minutes. This foursome has nothing to do with Tokyo (they're from suburban Toronto) or law enforcement; they have everything to do with Buzzcocks-style velocity and Strokes-style guitar hooks, without slowing down for a breath. Their debut EP has no fat on its bones, from the moment David Monks opens "Cheer It On" with the shout "Operator, get me the president of the world -- this is an emergency!" "Nature of the Experiment" actually seems to have a fairly intelligent and, indeed, heart-tugging lyric ("It's my impeccable disorder/Where I keep on falling for her"). But intelligence rarely pokes its unwanted head into Tokyo Police Club's mission, which is making you do... Read review
