  14. Worked on the same Shift with Mick at Bulwell in the 80’s. Great Guy, Lots of Humour, enjoyed a good laugh and talking over memorable incidents. Always recall Him chasing an offender through Bulwell calling out what became the Shifts Motto, ” Come Here i want a word with you.”
    A good bloke to have on your side.
    Condolences to the Family. R.I.P Mick.

  18. I started at Highways and was on the same course and then shift as Mick. A wonderful funny man. I used to love his war stories of Notts police in the 70s and 80s and then when he worked on the dare program. He taught me a lot about how to deal with people. I also miss the smell of st Bruno. RIP Mick.

  22. I worked with Mick at various times during my service at Canning Circus and Bulwell. He was a larger than life lovely character, who it was always a pleasure to be with. He had a great sense of humour. My condolences to his family and friends.
