Actually, it's not just our flat. The whole block is currently behind police lines...
Fortunately, I'm a naturally inquisitive person with a thirst for knowledge, so rather than just accepting our newfound residential status as crime scene occupants, and heading off to make a cup of tea, I leaned over the balcony and sweet-talked the two policewomen standing guard below.
Apparently there's been a "major incident" overnight, and they'll be around later to ask us what we heard. I'd better wish everyone a Happy New Year now, because by this time tomorrow, we could be in the witness protection scheme.

No-one dares comment, in case they incriminate themselves, just by admitting they know you!
I would like to make it clear that I have never heard of you. I wasn't there, and heard nothing. I was asleep at the time.
Unlike the previous commentator, who has rather blown her case, by calling herself 'Phil's Mum'.
Following Dave's lead, I will keep my BS6 cloak firmly up, and risk wishing wish you a Happy New Year.
At least now I'll be able to send your wedding/Christmas present to "The flats with the 'Police do not cross' tapes around, Brighton" Wonder if I can wrap a present with gloves on...
You'll probably find there's a few of those around Brighton, BS6!
Love your comment Phil's Mum! Makes me realise what a country boy I really am.
