shit, thats why i havent heared from my parents today.
Can say i've ever noticed a problem with imigrants in the savoy, majority of staff seem to be english, unless its in the back.
I did hear a bunch of lads walking near my house about 12/1am chanting what sounded like football songs, so may be related

Isn't there some sort of cult thing which lives upstairs? Maybe it was them.

I was down town early evening and passed the Savaloy around 6:30, just the usual collection of wandering immigrants, pissed up no hopers and chavs seeking the meaning of life.
By the time I got home, the police helicopter was out doing its pointless business, WTF did they ever move the police station to the back of beyond completely escapes me, 4 or 5 coppers on the beat would sort a lot of this stuff.

I still think it's stupid how they built a new police station in West Swindon only to knock it down a few years later. |

Westlea wasn't built right in the first place. For example all the pipes underneath for the sewage were wrong and often flooded. The place was a death trap. |

I didn't know they had....I thought it was strategically placed to keep a watch on the good citizens of Toothill. There used to be a fine police station in Old Town, not only did it get closed, but the pleasing stone building was knocked down and replaced by a nondescript brick structure. The cell door though is still to be found in the Bath Road Museum. |

Very similar in style to the OT example...Gorse Hill, sensibly turned into some sort of accommodation. |
