Foot patrol (11/02/2026)

Rick went all Eminem this evening (think distance, not lyrics), visiting lower Rush Green and all of the Parkside beat for more 'homecoming' and burglary-prevention coverage (8.08 miles).

After winding around Bardag lake, it was into Fels Farm Mews (6.03pm, p), Eastbrook Drive, Great Cullings and the entirety of Parish Fields (6.20pm, p) to catch people arriving home from work.

Fels Field was next before arriving in Hooks Hall Drive (7.10pm) on the Parkside beat. 

Ely Gardens, Fels Farm Avenue (7.22pm), Home Gardens and Bell Farm Avenue (7.31pm, p) all followed, along with the likes of Woodshire Road, Luke Allsopp Square (7.46pm), Eastbrook Close and Greenwood Avenue (8.09pm).

Felhurst Crescent, Delvers Mead (8.15pm) and Rainham Road South ‘rapped’ up the night.
