LOL CID is crime investigation department. basically DC/DCi's :P PC Pyroka you can piss off, I might join the police but it'll probably be CEOP I'd join... which is in SOCA, ironically. it's a family business lolz.
I get to hear all their tales, ah it's great dinner talk. in the news lately, a girl was found bloodstained in woods by a man, and she was alive running around shouting "He's coming after me, he's comin after me!". she gets to do the witness testamony, it's so awesome. newspapers and my mum are like... always.

Are you telling me someone can track me down because my dad is a taxi driver, and my mum works for the NHS? There are thousands of London cabbies, probably hundreds with kids named Ollie - lol.
This is quite a violation of the personal details rule, I think.

Sad people would do that :)
I'm not saying your parents can be tracked down, I'm saying others could be if they had a specific job and from that they could easily piece a few things together from other posts on this forum getting a whole lot of personal information from you.
Village/Town, Age, Name, Parents jobs/ DOB...
Then they can use that, search on social networking sites and find tons more of information about you, I know someone that has her road name posted on a social network site -.-
But yeah, hence why I don't give out personal information ;)
