What is the world coming too ?

I had to hire a transit van for a week or so to shift some stuff about (including very sadly clearing out remaining stock from our adult shop in peterborough ) , anyway , had it parked outside my house last night , woke up this morning to find some toe rag had nicked it , unbelivable !! , brand new transit van , i had the key so god knows how they pinched it . No glass anywhere so they didnt smash a window to get in , luckily im friendly with the owner of the hire place so they were pretty good about it . But left a few bits and bobs of mine in the van , ie bluetooth , charger etc etc . Very annoying , just once id love to catch these scum bags in the act and give en a proper good hiding , who ever nicked it , i hope they crash and die a slow and painful death

Not good. I'm a wee bit more fortunate because living in the far North of Scotland it's too cold and wet for scumbags! Although a mate of mine caught a fella dragging a nail across the roof of his Cortina many years ago. He gave the fella a real good hiding and then dragged him to the local cop-shop. The duty cop asked what happened, and my mate said it was self-defence! Surprisingly got away with that. However, the vandal was only given 160 hrs community service and he couldn't afford to pay my mate back for the damage. So a good hiding is always best I'd say!

Did he get any adult goods with the van Rich ?if so he is perhaps still trying to understand what they are  ,maybe an extra large 500volt vibrator introduced to his posterior may teach him. Was it a plain white van ? they are the best pinch only needing false plates for a clear run past Elderly William  .A few years ago I came out of the digs at four in the morning in Kidbrooke to find the lorry complete with ten tons of spuds had gone from the station yard,felt a bit lonely standing there with just my bag

re the subjec title ................
In a single word SH!T
This is exactly why I semi retired to N/W Scotland....................
A couple of years ago I did a gig in a pub locally, like a twit I left a laptop on the table outside the pub.
Went in and had a late drink with the owner, came out 3 hours later, Laptop still exactly where I left it 
Couldn't have done that down South 
These @rse holes really do deserve a good hiding
Cheers Dave

Aye Dave. But the real reason no-one pinched yer laptop was, they knew if you found out who did it you'd hogtie them and string a line from the back of the boat and drag them up and down the Loch a few times at 50 knots !!!

No gozz van was empty apart from my personnel belongings , had to buy another bluetooth today although saying that i lose so many of the things its nothing new !!! It wasnt a plain van it had SIXT written on it , had the police phone me tonight , they want to come round sunday to take a statement , only 5 days after the event ! I said to the copper its probably half way round the world by now . Was informed by the old bill that there has been over 20 (yes 20) transit vans stolen in essex in the last 2 weeks alone , they said they are concentrating on the case now , better late than never isuppose ,but should it take a spate of thefts for themto get they're harris's into gear ?? And yes i know they have more important things to do , i saw 15 of them pouncing on motorists on lower rd and jamica rd (bermondsey)today
