A Waste of Police Budget?
As I sat getting even colder on a bench in the car park eating my salmon sandwiches, nibbling at the cold salad and drinking the even colder smoothie, I noticed a large Police truck appear, which on closer inspection was a horse-box.
Police Horses at Glanford Park
As everybody knows, Ipswich Town fans have a reputation. They seem to turn up in larger numbers than most and perhaps this is why the Humberside force decided to bring in the cavalry!
But what a waste of money! Unless it was some odd method to keep the horses warm on such a cold day.
Incidentally, you don’t often see Police horses at Portman Road, because the Suffolk force doesn’t have any. And neither does Norfolk or Cambridgeshire.
But thinking back, I don’t think I actually saw the horses outside the box, so perhaps it was too cold.
The Anonymous Widower 
If you think this was absurd then what about Hull City Police force using lifesized cardboard cutouts of some of their police officers and placing them all over the city centre in belief that it would cut and deter shoplifting?!?! It was downright absurd to see them all over the place and heres the funniest bit – they claim they did help reduce crime!

How many of the cutouts got stolen?
