Laughing With The Blues - Softcover
Think of a Police Officer and you probably think of words such as strict, serious, authoritive and humourless. You'd be wrong. The job is rife with humour which relieves stress and helps one to forget about some of the horrible things Police Officers deal with on a daily basis. This book is about the humour experienced by a Police Officer over his thirty years of service, both on and off duty. The Police Service is made up of people from all walks of life and contains many strange and wonderful characters who enjoyed a good belly laugh regardless of what they were dealing with. Some stories are seriously funny, some are unbelievably and weirdly funny, but all are factual - they really did happen!

About the Author:
Gordon Shepherd served for thirty years as a Police Constable with Northumbria Police. For most of his service he worked as a front line uniformed Officer but also worked in plain clothed departments such as the Criminal Investigation Department (C. I. D.), Shoplifting Squad, Stolen Vehicle Squad and as a Local Intelligence Officer. He was a Lesbian Gay Bisexual Trangender Liaison Officer for ten years and a qualified self defence instructor for eight years. His career started at Gateshead in 1976 and in 1985, he moved over the River Tyne to Newcastle City centre. In 1999, he was stationed at Whickham, six miles to the west of Newcastle, where he served the remainder of his service until his retirement in 2006. After retirement from the Police service, Gordon involved himself in family history research and had several articles published in magazines. He has been married to Yvonne for the past thirty years and they have two grown up children.
