    Can we show some appreciation to the Metro journalist Tom Sanders who served us with this masterpiece of writing. Use of ‘tooting’ and ‘the police getting wind’ are pure poetry. The world of journalism is blessed and we are witnessing a once in a generation talent!

      I do enjoy reading an article where the writer has clearly had fun writing it and actually put a bit of time and effort and thought into it rather than just squeezing out “copy” and moving on once they’ve hit their word count. There should be an an(nu)al prize for it - a Poolitzer, perhaps.
