Just been reading about this big robbery in London.....

http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/england/london/8195740....

It says 43 pieces were taken - with a value of 40 million quid.

The report lists things like:

A yellow diamond flower necklace, a platinum white Marquise diamond ring and a Chronograph men's watch were among the other pieces taken.

How many watches are worth that much?

Does this sort of value of jewellery just sit around in London jewellers?

Its not like that up north - Elizabeth Duke and Ratners up here you see.

That end of Bond St has some pretty impressive jewellers. Walk the Mrs past quickly. Very quickly.

Happened last week, apparently. Just watched the footage on the TV news.

Perps must have been known to Police for them to sit on it like that; I guess they now 'need the public's help'.
