Just had the Police round ....

[STEViE]

..... turns out some fe<kin' little twats nicked my car earlier from outside my garage. They found the car in the housin' estate behind us. Bastards tried to burn it out, didn't succeed so hopfully a few prints may be lifted. Same ol' same ol', they have a pretty good idea who's done it but they need proof. I'll have to pop down to see it tomorrow mornin' where it's now been taken to see what they nicked out of it .

Jeez, an' there I was all set to get totally wasted tonite after the particularly sh!tty day I've had.

I don't mind these young coppers when they're as pretty as she was tho :D

b'stards, w@nkers, feck, bollox, cnuts ...... ad infinitum

[TaxiDave]

Don't forget that the police will charge you £105.00 plus Vat for having your car moved even though you didn't ask them to, as I've just found out to my cost.

[Rogue Monkey]

That doesnt apply if they have it finger printed! They tried that one on me and they refunded the money to me cos they had to admit they took it for there own purposes i.e. fingerprinting! Also! not all police forces have that rule! Manchester Police dont charge unless you dont pick it up from them the day they tell you! :o

[STEViE]

I was told that it would be taken for fingerprintin' an' no charge would be made.

I hope the b'stards that nicked it cleaned up all the mess I've made in there. They threw my Larry Adler cd out before they left, obviously they have a problem with harmonica music, still, maybe a print or two .....



..... someday my prints will come

[Bassman]

Nail guns are pretty good at persuading the scrotes not to do it again... or so I hear ...

[hellkat]

I expect that setting fire to their crown jewels whilst they are standing in nowt but their (petrol soaked) boxer shorts in front of several of their peers (perhaps whom are tied to a lamp post watching) would probably often discourage them (all) from sitting on anything, let alone your car (stealing for the purposes of) - for quite a while.

One would imagine.

[Spike]

I prefer thumb screws on the nads meself, always gets there full attension.

[Mrs Reject]

Kids today....no common sense at all, when I were a kid I'd never throw anything at or nick anything from a bikers house (was a tearaway I'm afraid).
It's asking for trouble. Hope you get it all back Stevie and kick their arses while yur at it!!!! :(

[fade2black]

Its sh1t mate but hang on in there.

You could always wire a battery up to the steering wheel when you not in it.

But best not in these compensation days YOU would end up paying.

We had a crash on Xmas Day. Notified the insurance company on the Wednesday after.

On the Thursday morning we had the compensation solicitors on the phone!!!!

Took us 37 phone calls to get a courtesy car sorry vehicle. We use Motability cos my lady is in a wheelchair and they guarantee (ha) a vehicle within 24 hours. We got a vehicle last Wednesday. A VAuxhall Vivaro!!!!!! You couldnt make it up. I asked how I was supposed to get my disabled wife in it when my back was klilling me from the accident. They said thats all we got!

Dont want to hijack your thread but just be careful how revenge or "dont do it again" persuasion is carried out mate

[JOE]

no witness, no crime

[Fran]

Stake them out on an anthill with a honey suppository.(Fire ants are the best for this)

[Spike]

big old oil drum (slightly messy still) hammer in 6" nails all round (inwards), fill with human waste, place said scrote inside, fit lid, find big hill, and roll down.......

[fade2black]

no witness, no crime

Absolutely right but as I said be a bit careful!!

[STEViE]

No urgency for vengence. I'm quite happy to wait my turn. Ya never know one day they may just nick a car an' it bursts into flames these things do happen y'know.

I was in a band a few years ago ......

One night on stage the guitarist was givin' me filthy looks an' kept this up for most of the gig. After the gig he was stood at the bar. I went over, slapped his back an' said "What's up mate"

"Touch me again an' I'll break your legs" came his reply

"Don't be a tw@t " says I touchin' his shoulder, at which point he leg swept me beautifully an' once I was on the deck came at me with his fists.
He was somewhat bigger than me an' we still had six dates left on the tour, so I told him to leave it out an' after a couple of other guys pulled him away we stayed at separate tables for the rest of the night.

Now we was roomies on tour so this was not a good thing. He came back to the room a little later, no apology, no nuthin'. Fair enuf. He then went off to shag our German manager which was supposed to be the secret that no one knew - yeah right !!!

So while he was out of the room I pissed in his toothpaste an' his mouthwash ....

.... The next six days an' the followin' tour he was usin' that mouthwash.

RETRIBUTION AN' REVENGE ..... an' no blood.

Can't say that I'm as laid back as that these days.

Lee the lodger had his car nicked New Years Eve while he was staying at a mate's house in a not very good area, police found it the next day in a BAD area, burnt out inside as usual. As I'm not using my car we've been able to lend it to him so he can get to work and fetch his daughter at weekends (bike's off the road and daughters mum won't have her on it anyway)

So today he gets a letter from his insurers to say his insurance - the bit that allows him to drive someone else's car - is now invalid until he transfers the insurance to a new car! WTF! He's still paying for the f****** insurance! And how much notice does he get - none! thats it, its now invalid! And he can't insure my car cos its already insured by me - but not for him to drive! So as I'm unlikely to be able to drive my car again (going to an automatic, different story) I've had to cancel my insurance so that he can drive it - or else pay an extra £75! Even then he's had choose whether to drive uninsured for one day or miss a days work!

On the benefit side tho, he's had an offer from the insurance co which is better than he expected (his was an old car - beautifully looked after, but old) so he should be able to get something else. He can't keep mine cos its too thirsty and costs too much to insure... Pity really cos it drives lovely even if it is old.

[Suzukiron]

And thats about the size of it....
or put another way bad things happen to good people...

As for the revenge thing, well lets say i have first hand experience of dealing with summat like this and i understand how "Terrorism" works...ie instill terror,you dinnae have to hurt anyone(much)...you only have to convince them that you are gonna hurt them lots..... not gonna say what i did in a public forum, and im not proud of myself either...but nobody that knew the scroates concerned, will ever give me any problems.... :rolleyes:

still not a good thing to happen to anyone....

F2B...contact "Enterprise" car rentals, they do a deal that if you can convince them that the accident wern't your fault, they will give you a car "free gratis",until yer claim is settled, they then recover costs from other party...i only found this out when i had to get a hire car after an accident myself a few years back...doesn't half help "focus" insurance companies when they are paying a premium for you to ride round in a decent motor...of your choice ;)

[BikerGran]

yep, that would be an idea if it was an accident - but as the car was nicked and the cops haven't got a clue - there's no-one for them to claim off!

[memnoch]

I learnt a valuable lesson back in about 1969/70 when I was nought but a spotty teenager - 11 or 12 I guess

I was a kid and soft as sh*te in those days...and about 3 or 4 lads that went to the same youth club as me decided it would be great fun if one of them held me from behind while the others laid into me for about 10 minutes...

Long story but you can imagine, teeth through lip, broken nose, blood all over and me mum actually fainted when I staggered in the door...

The next week, the guy who ran the youth club, seeing my obvious injuries, asked what happened...when I told him he gave me this advice....

Get yerself a nice length of 2 x 4 and wait...those lads won't always be together...get em one by one....

Did I? Not with a lump of 2 x 4...but yep, bided my time, took my retribution and never had another peep out of em! Also found that word spread and nobody else bothered me after that either (well, not very often...lol and when they did, I dealt wiv it).

Love Hellkat's 'petrol-soaked shorts' by the way...sounds like fun to this wicked Prince of Darkness....

It was Enterprise who gave us the Van!!! and we are paying the insurance excess at £9 a day.

Stevie,
3 lock-up garages in the block where I keep my Speed Triple were broken into last weekend. About half a mile from your place. Gits had gone along the row, popping 'em open with a crow bar to see what was inside. Fortunately I had a couple of extra padlocks on mine. Keeping the bike outside my flat for the time being though while I make up some bloody big steel bars to lock the door to the concrete floor. Hope it all works out O.K
:mad:

[STEViE]

Just a quick update.

I had a call from the police an hour or so ago to say they have a 15 year old lad in custody ( don't tell grav or he'll be wantin' some :D ).
He was not the driver but one of the others in the vehicle at the time. They tell me he is being 'as usual' uncooperative (this b'stard's a regular apparently) an' refusin' to say anythin'.
Send 'im round here I told them, I'll get him to talk, by the time I finish with him he'll sing every song in the book - well, the Steve Earle songbook anyways :D
So I may well get to find out who the b'stard is yet.

When I went to clear out the stuff from the car that they'd left behind (not much) I found the small rock they used to break the rear quarterlight window. I decided I'm gonna save this so as when the b'stards finally crash an' kill themselves (hopefully not causin' anyone else any harm) I can turn up at the funeral, toss it in the grave on top of the coffin an' say "Here, ya left this behind ".

Vindictive. Moi.

YOU BET !! :mad:
