Remeber when your parents used to make you leave for a fortnight down the coast at 3am and put a cushion in front of the VCR so the clock couldn't be seen through the window?? 
Times have changed!
Father in law used to do this. No idea why, no thief worth his salt stole Betamax Times have changed!

Oh I completely agree, there's many a group I'm on that provide a daily source of identity theft content and burglar insight, maybe a dramatic image like this is what's needed, I just thought it was all a bit theatrical rather than providing a basic wake-up call.
Thinking about it maybe I'm in the wrong job, I could be harvesting all of this stuff and making use of it...

If he cycles a bike, why has she gone out to take a photo in a car, could he not of taken the photo on the bike?
I just don't get it. It's a new build estate so parking obviously going to be not great, but surely he can cycle around it.
If he's struggling before he leaves the road, maybe he shouldn't cycle to work.
Not a f

Someone has just started spamming every post on the local group with a screenshot similar to this but with the bit they're outraged about circled in angry red and a note saying we need to boycott the place. It's perfect bait if anyone wants to reuse it, I suspect the uptake will be in single figures but there's quite some backlash given it's a council-owned property that "we all pay for with our taxes and then have to pay to visit"

Mind you, last time I played there we had to wait on the 2nd tee until about 50 motocross bikes and quads drove straight across in front of us!
There is outrage that the newly refurbished M&S cafe is both self service and doesn't take cash.
The usual set of boycott them, I'll go elsewhere, they'll lose a loyal customer and it's legal tender they have to take it opinions have been expressed. What about old people, people who don't have cards, people who can't use tech. Generally followed by 'it's ok for me but....' people complaining on the behalf of others.
Weird.
It's still packed every time I go past.

Our local Tesco has lost its (independent) nice coffee shop and is being replaced by a Greggs, this will be the 4th or 5th in the local area, no one wants it, everyone is complaining, however you can bet your last sausage roll it will be packed at all timesThe usual set of boycott them, I'll go elsewhere, they'll lose a loyal customer and it's legal tender they have to take it opinions have been expressed.
