The police have just phoned me from outside my house.
They are now on their way to my offices to take a DNA cheek swab for a 30 year old murder enquiry in which they have a full DNA profile of the attacker.
They could be telling the truth when they say that the samples (swabs) are not kept; however, I bet that the results (spectrograph?) are retained for future usage.

When challenged, the officers' line was that they were collecting samples from people who had previously provided similar samples for other enquiries.
Zeuhl - I just read your post of 1326
"I asked them how they knew I was me"
because I was skimming through this I read it as "I asked them how they knew it was me" ..... and I was thinking we had a criminal ABer for one horrible second.
They do, Grass.....☺..and probably with some of my cakes the file would have been superfluous....☻
Noodle, darling....I was replying to Zeuhl in the same vein as he used when telling us of his experiences today....
Now....cheer up and smile again...you know you like it.....☺
