Yes, I saw all of the photos of stolen goods yesterday. Quite a haul, but why didn't they fence it? It was quite amusing to see a toaster and a toilet roll amongst their booty.

In fact, with several passports and ID cards amongst their haul, why were the public invited to view in the first instance?

Most of the items seem to be small enough to fit into a small safe, which can be purchased in many shops in town and installed and secured quite simply by yourself in an hidden location.

It was the first thing I did when I moved into the house, sure if someone finds the safe and wants to take it they can, but would take time and a lot of noise to remove, but gives me peace of mind.

I bumped into the girl in the photo in town yesterday and she gave me her autograph. I've just realised reading this that I've since put my shorts in the washing machine. Damn-it.
She retrieved her wallet.... minus any contents of course.
String them up.

I wonder when the BIB will figure out, that those two thieves have nicked a couple of bullet proof vest as well. :naughty:
I've lost my mind and I am making no effort to find it.
