Can anybody guess the song that was chosen? Long before my time.

Shampoo. "Uh oh, we're in trouble, someone's come along and he's burst our bubble."

you really need music over the PA for a shoulder reconstruction?

I expect you thought that was humerous

Humerus surely...

We don't have one. I think we should, but the feeling is that it would scare people.

I plan to jump out the window and run like hell. Might do a practice drill this afternoon.

The advice from our counter terrorism lot is to get out of the building, but don't all gather in the same place. Thanks.

We have an announcement on the tannoy and we have to stay indoors and make sure the doors are locked.
Which is probably the best place to be because we have the CNC police muppets outside armed with machine guns.

POSTED 6 MINUTES AGO # REPORT-POST

We've just had presentations on this at work. The current advice , run, hide, tell is handily shown here with a nice video as well [url= https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/stay-safe-film ]Don't panic, no hang on do panic!!!!!![/url]
Obviously by tell they mean post on here as the attack is ongoing.

I'm also curious to as to where you work that has a specific lockdown procedure. Where I work there's an armed response if the building alarm goes off (it's a brown trousers moment + expensive if you mess up the alarm code when trying to do some weekend work :p ) but we don't have an intruder lockdown procedure

Where I work, you can just leave the alarm going off all weekend and no one notices....

In my kids nursery school they have the lockdown procedure printed off and stuck on the wall, so it's not exactly restricted to Nuclear bunkers.

There's a company near by who bought the local authority Nuclear Bunker and use it for RF testing....

But nobody ever bothered explaining what to do if you get stuck outside (I'd go for duck and cover)

Oh and hope armed terrorists don't figure out a way to unlock a glass door...

Most town halls and many other local authority buildings have nuclear shelters in the basement. Though I did hear of one town hall where the basement was too small to have a nuclear shelter permanently built there. So the staff were provided with a pile of bricks and instructions on how to build a bomb shelter in an emergency 😀

I'm going take my shoes off and strip down to my vest. Have written down some pithy one liners on flash card too, some examples.

"negotiate with THIS woodburner, sucker"
"I've got bespoke trousers, locked and loaded"
"That's not a machiatto, THIS is a machiatto"

Can't help but wonder what the staff would do if the tannoy announced "Lock down, lock down, lock down!!!" but no Beatles....

Its an international school, they generally have some sort of lockdown/duck & cover due to the types of kids going there.

School before this we had Rio Tinto families at it, they did a security audit of the school, and only let families sign up once we had fixed a couple of things - we did get a cool walkie talkie to be connected to the emergency radio service for disasters and civil unrest.

Our current site is a nightmare to keep secure, this year's project is to fence in the 25 acres properly.

Please, unlike so many school sites, allow pedestrian access direct to the communities. Don't force everyone to use the same entrance with vehicles, cutting off pupils from thier estates and teachers from easily heading off site. It does mean a walk for a janitor to lock and unlock.

I am also intrigued as to what a fence will achieve. I have watched pupils 'hop' over an 18' high cage fence and many steel spike fences, putting them at significant risk and proving TheBoogeyMan could also 'hop' over as quickly.

Interestingly, Dunblane primary (the school who should probably be most paranoid about these things) is the least secure site I know of, with major right of way through the middle. Thier view is nothing would have stopped him.

We fence the grounds to keep the local community out, or at least stop wandering in and trying to use the swimming pool.

A 6' fence with anti-vandal paint on the top 6" is normally enough, most school kids don't want oily paint on their expensive trainers....
