Name those jammers, anyone?

Easy to spot incoming traffic around us, if it’s new and not a farmer it’s someone from SCD.
guards are loving this
Eamonn McCann, the left wing journalist/politician from Derry, one said it takes a certain type of person to want to be a policeman. It was in reference to the north at the time but still has a certain ring of truth about it.
I wouldnt mind a go at being a guard if got an old style truncheon instead of nightstick of nowadays
Haven’t yeh got the ould Love Truncheon to be goin’ on with?
Ah I dunno- I’ve had hold of a guard’s truncheon a few times now.
BB, I’d say you’d be ‘old school’.

The man himself needed no truncheon.
“Now you’re either going or you’re coming and they knew what that meant”

is it the handcuffs bb..?
I know a guy who joined up because it was the only job available in the late 80s. He’s near retirement now and is still garda rank cos he had no ambition, but he did his job properly and raised his family. Nothing to do with the type of person he was, he just saw it as a permanent, full time job.
the guards are the jammers
