Quashing crime for Auld Lang Syne. The sirens are blaring and the bells are ringing as the nation's favourite force work a New Year's shift. These cops are honking horns for Hogmanay and banging up bams for the bells - on the streets, at functions, down the station and in cyberspace. Their duties include everything from checking ceilidhs to making sure steak pies are legal. Even Chief Miekelson is working hard on Hogmanay, urging all Scotland to party responsibly on the biggest blowout night of the year. Raising a glass to getting mad with it in a sensible manner. Slanj!
