I have to admit when my oldest daughter was 15 or so - her and her wannabe gangster buddies would refer to them as "the feds"!

Re: "The Filth"
On TV, I think I heard it first on 'The Bill'. But having watched the sweeney recently, it is definitely of 70's vintage.

Butch, apart from your OH, who is obviously innocent, IMO If you get caught in a speed trap in the city you deserve it!
There's certain fishing holes that the police always use. You rarely get caught by a patrol car.
It's not worth speeding in the city either. All you do is get to the next traffic light more quickly and have to wait longer.
Now on my bike outside the city........
hehehe!
