Inspector Sands

[caddyman]

I must remember to check what, if anything is happening at Victoria Underground Station this morning. I didn’t encounter any delays and the place seemed to be operating normally, but as I was walking along the platform to the escalators the announcement for “Inspector Sands” to go to the control room came over the tannoy. It is a sort of open secret that “Inspector Sands” is the code at UK stations (and maybe airports) for “trouble”.

Whatever it was, I suspect that the fact that it is all running normally indicates a false alarm.
