Hi guys - this morning the bergies were still there. Whenever I see suspicious people or anything of the sort (ESPECIALLY people who offer me drugs!) I call one of the patrol cars that are listed on this web site. I find that they are usually responsive and helpful, and at other times they tell me that they have noted the call and will act on it.
