Thank you, arseh*le

[Ed]

...for breaking into my car parked outside my house this evening. I hope you have a really terrific drug-hazed Christmas on my wife's £15 cash and £10 House of Fraser voucher. I've stopped her cards, so they are no good to you. It's just coincidence that exceptionally we had allowed Sophie to ride upfront as a Christmas treat and so Anne had gotten out of her usual routine when we parked up outside and so hadn't remembered to pick up her bag. It's a nuisance that her cheque book was in her bag too, but I've stopped that too, so any cheques that you write fraudulently will bounce.

***

So we're sat here waiting for the police to arrive. Car window is toast. Can't get it sorted for 2 days. And it's ****ing down.

Ah well. That's life I spose. I was driving earlier, and parked on the driveway, I moved the car onto the road so that I could get the bike out of the garage to wash off all yesterday's muck. I'd come in and our neighbours arrived for a Chistmas drink, and as I won't drink and drive (not even to move the car the few yards onto the drive) the car had to stay there, and I hadn't noticed Anne's bag in the passenger footwell.

Happy Christmas, arseh*le.

Damn ed, sorry to hear this. Have you managed to cover up the window with something, stop the rain getting in? DOnt let it dampen your spirits too much, the theiving scum will probably get caught sooner or later

Chin up mate

Bad news Ed. What makes it even worse is thinking it's your fault cause of forgetting the bag. Thieving scum. I hate them with a vengeance.

[Miss Alpinestarhero]

Oh my God! Im sorry to hear that Ed. Dont beat yourself up about it too much, its no-ones fault that the bag was forgotten. At least it wasnt too much money taken, the cheques/cards were easily cancelled, no-one was hurt, you still have your bike and the car window can be easily replaced.

I know its not the point though - The theif will get their come-uppence sooner or later.

Chin up :)

Really sorry Ed.... total scumbags!!! Sounds like you`ve acted promptly tho and hopefully they won`t have got the chance to try the cards or cheque book. Really hope it doesn`t spoil your xmas

[Ed]

Getting over it a bit now. Cops told me not to touch it until they come. I'm sure they have higher priorities than me, so I'm not surprised that it's over an hour now. The inside of the car is now drenched. Glass all over. We've never been burgled here, never had anything like this happen here. It happened last time outside our house when we lived in Cornwall, b*stards then stole a few CDs and, perversely, a duster.

Moral - never but never leave anything lying around - even if you think it's safe. Ask yourself 'where's my bag/wallet' any number of times a day, and carry the bare minimum around with you.

[Speedy Claire]

Very true... my last car was broken into a couple of times cos of my "nurse on call" badge in the front, i`d be broken into by smackheads looking for needles and syringes which unfortunately i always have to carry.

Hope you don`t have to wait much longer and can get the window sealed up at least.

[Fizzy Fish]

sorry to hear about this Ed, hope your other half gets her cards, etc sorted soon.

[thedonal]

Damn! Ed- sorry to hear that. It's a nasty thing, however much is stolen.

As said- chin up and enjoy your Yuletide anyway 'cos it's yours and yer family's- no Scroty thief can take that from you.

[Defender]

Sorry to hear the news mate.

Shame you don't live near me as your car would be in my garage avoiding the rain and getting wetter!

[stewie]

Blody ell mate hope it doesnt ruin your christmas,all the best anyway :)

[Lissa]

Oh Ed, we are really sorry to hear this.:(

I hope the police don't take too long to get round to sort things out so you can do something to make the car secure.

Try to enjoy Christmas despite this.

[Sean_C]

Sorry to hear this Ed, hope it all gets sorted out easily enough.
Take care :)

[metalmonkey]

Grr I hope you get it sorted, yeah hopefully police will get you to soon.....

Yup I hope they get caught too...but don't let it ruin xmas, what a crapy thing to happen espically today. It wasn't your fault and your quick action is ace at least any the cards ect are no use. Take care pal and enjoy the festive season!

[sv-robo]

as i said in speedy claires thread yesterday,society has no place for bas****s like this and this sort always will get there comeuppance,as with claire i hope your christmas can still be a good un.


peace&goodwill to all men.................yeah right.

[Ed]

Thank you everyone!!!!! You're too kind.

West Mercia Police been, took a statement, of course nobody saw or heard 'owt. So the bloke reversed the car onto the drive for me (I couldn't - been drinking) and he left. He can't have been a day over 21....

No, some f*ckwit isn't going to spoil Christmas. I just hope that they enjoy the few E tablets they'll be able to buy with Anne's £15.

That's someone's definition of a happy Christmas. Sad, isn't it.

[Stingo]

Sorry to hear about this - all the worse for the time of year. It's not a good feeling having been 'violated' as it were.
What goes around comes around.:smt077

[Pedro68]

[Frank]

hard luck mate
I can remember years ago ,being woken up at 2am to find the police at the door.Some toerag had nicked my beloved suzy.
Funny thing though ,it had no brakes on it because I was fittin all new ones.
Idiot rode it straight into a wall down the street and got 2 broken collar bones for his pleasure.
not funny at the time ,but now
hohoho

[Stig]

I have been burgled before. It makes you sick to the bottom of your stomach. The worst thing ever is the things they take that they have no interest in and you know will get thrown away. For me it was a video of the birth of my first born. Made even more important as I was away on an operational tour at the time in the army so didn't actually experience it first hand.

I was gutted and mortified.

Ed, I seriously hope one of those scrotes slashes thier wrist on broken glass and bleeds to death.

[Well Oiled]

Sorry for your troubles Ed. Lucky thact you had no real valuables in there. Hope it doesn't spoil your Christmas.

Best wishes Keith

[zunkus]

Sorry to hear the news Ed. My wife's car also got broken into a while back and in broad daylight. In fact it was one o'clock in the afternoon and I was in my garage four doors down. Didn't see or hear a thing. Thinking back I think it was better this way. If I had seen the guy red handed don't know what I would have done, either freeze motionless or smash his head. Most probably it would have been the last and would have got me into more trouble than fixing the dented door and buying a new stereo. I've fitted an alarm now but still jump whenever I hear an alarm go off by accident. The whole street fitted the same type of alarm to their car it seems. My wife's fault for sure for blabbing what a good deal we got from the local car shop :)

:rolleyes:

haha, good work there.


ED...sorry to hear this man. That sucks big time!

Season of good will to all men. Except for that scumbag, hope he gets hit by a train :twisted:

[admin]

Been burgled in the past too. Not nice. my daughters car got done last year, radio ripped out etc. £40 radio, £80 worth of damage.

[timwilky]

I had my car done about 18 months ago. On a hotel car park. Left it in place for 3 further days waiting for the cops to do an investigation as they did 4 other cars at the same time. Mine was the expensive damage as instead of a window they punched the lock through the door skin.

Eventually phoned the cops and asked when their crime scene people would be visiting. No point as it has rained since. Great if they had turned out at day one they may have found evidence as to the scroats identity.

Sorry to read this has been a blot on your Christmas. I hope it did not set the trend for the rest of the holiday period.

[Beenz]

Bad news this, you can't leave anything on display in a car these days. Sad fact is that you should not have to worry.

Lets hope the thieving scroat gets a bad fix and suffers badly

[yorkie_chris]

Lets hope the thieving scroat gets a bad fix and suffers badly

I've always thought it a reet idea to hijack a few heroin shipments, cut it with rat poison and let it go off to its intended destination.

A mate of mine used to leave his dog in the back of his van, came back one day and the window was smashed, the dogs sat on the drivers seat with the sleeve of a jacket in his mouth and there must of been a pint or so of blood all over passenger seat, dash and windscreen :mrgreen: Good doggie!

[Tara]

not good Ed hope the weather dried up for you, hope it gets sorted soon

[Ed]

Thank you everyone!! Took the car to Autoglass over at Telford yesterday, turned out they'd ordered the wrong glass:rolleyes: so they've re-ordered, should be fitted today.
