This entire area was blocked off overnight (as is a large chunk of the motorway). This certainly adds some credence towards the exercise idea.

So how far away are the bomb squad based?. I was stuck in traffic on the M56 at around half one yesterday by thelwall and a bomb disposal truck shot past on the hard shoulder. It must have been going to Wallesey.

I was at Totals yard when they turned up. Was told it was a firearms tipoff n raid. I WAS AT THAT DOOR!!!!!!
We do work for them and i was dropping invoice off, police car blocking one end of Myrtle st so i drove round the back and into the street from the other end. Then a police car blocked that end and me in. As i dropped the invoice into postbox (In the door!!!) a copper asked what i was doing, just told him then let me out of the road! BLOODY HELL!!! I have been in there soooo many times, was upstairs in the office on Wednesday!!!!
