Sorry Shane, you must be gutted!
I really can't imagine why people would do this. Although this is one of the reasons I took the exorbitant step of getting a garage. I didn't want the scotes to have the opportunity to do something like that.
Hope you get it sorted soon.

Rob.

Gutted for you mate. I note from your profile you are in Manchester. I was there Saturday night and some little scroates forced their way into the house I was staying in and threatened to stab me!!! Wanted the keys to my Scooby (but it had been parked up for 4 or 5 hrs, so I bluffed them into thinking it belonged to someone else). However, they still managed to get £1,700 out of me (£70 cash, £300 digi camera, and £1,300 Tag watch!!). Although it was not a pleasant experience, at least no-one was hurt, and all the stuff is replaceable.

I bet you wish they had taken it rather than just smash it up. I understand robbery (in a way), but it is the pointless wrecking of things (especially things that people clearly look after) that winds me up.

I just hope that there is such a thing as Kharma (sp?), and one day these little bastids get what is coming to them!

Sorry to hear about these issues - I hope the car gets fixed quickly. Probably best to have the dealer fit the broken window anyway (mind you they will only call in Autoglass/whoever to fit the windscreen if that is broken too).

I know this happens everywhere, but does Manchester have an especially bad problem with people doing this kind of thing (breaking in and demanding etc.).

There is nothing more annoying than having your pride and joy abused by these mindless scum. The answer is public humiliation ....catch them and make them pay for the damage and repairs, have their names and photos printed in the local press and have the little darlings clean public toilets using their heads to clean the U bends !!!!Why are people in Britain today so envious and spiteful for anything which they cannot afford or have ?

My TVR Chimaera 5.0 is safely locked up in the garage and I will use a metal baseball bat on any uninvited intruder !It is high time the law became sensitive to the feelings of the victim

Sorry to hear your woes. Particularly you jolley. Glad you're ok. I'm afraid the scum never really get their cummupance. We got burgled when I was a student and I caught the little scumbag trying to sell our stuff on the market! Did the "right" thing and called the Rozzers. They didn't arrest him on the grounds that he'd be out the same day for burglary but they didn't want to spook him as he was under surveillance for DSS fraud which would get him 18 months. So, he robs me - no punishment. He robs the DSS - 18 months. Go figure.
The law is loaded in favour of the scrote I'm afriad.

Shane,
Very sorry indeed to hear about your lovely T350, I do wonder where we're heading in this country, and it seems to be getting worse, and they always seemingly get away with it
I will not be voting Labour on May 5th! (not that it's gonna make the slightest difference!)

Shane,

Just to add to the posts already - very sorry for you. I also live in Manchester (think I might have seen you a couple of times) and was starting to get a bit more relaxed about where we left the Tamora on a night out...not any more. Never give scum the benefit of the doubt.

Which part of town was it?

I must admit that if I were faced in this situation then I would be very wary and hand over, till they turned their back to walk/run away, then I would mutilate them. They would never walk again.

Oh believe me, it would be self-defence officer…

Shane,

Sorry to hear of your trouble. I also live and work in the Manchester area. It worries me how frequent this type of crime is cropping up around us?

Hope you get it fixed soon.

Patsy,

If you see a strange woman waving at you in a Black Alfa GT, it's my wife. My Tam is the same colour as yours and she thinks its me. Keep getting questioned for being where i shouldn't??

This is an outrageous blend of provincial horrors.

I share the collective despair in matters pertaining to the NW.

The only solution is a final one, I'm afraid.

When will someone get their balls re-attached and start to make the little b'tard fockers face up to the consequences of their actions.

Ahhh poor little scrote has had a disturbed upbringing, it is not his fault......of course it is his fault, it was his foot that went thorugh the bus shelter/ hammer through grp. If I had my way he would have a pretty rough adulthood as well until it dawned on him what is acceptable in our society.

Pound the little shits into submission, physically, mentally, emotionally until they realise they are not the be all and end all of this world. They are not the dogs danglies, the don, daddy or whatever the current attitude that prevails is.

The system must win to keep a stable society.....will it?

Not a chance with these utopian 'inclusive society' these Labour and Lib Dem w*nkers are chasing.

really sorry to hear about both instances.
They only do it because they get away with it. if they didnt get away with it they wouldnt do it.
People say harsh sentences dont work....look at Iran. im sure mindless crime is lower than here. cut the tendons off in their hands etc. public hangings. it would make the scum think twice. and if they do commit the crime they CANT do it again.
