The problem is the police do bugger all IF they get caught, the courts are worse. No hope. We had an incident last night where I saw yobbos trying to trash our local play park. I phoned the police, two hours later no police but they started burning it, phoned again and was assured they were on their way. Guess what? No show and seeing the park this morning is tragic. I know weekends are busy but the first call was at 7pm!!!! Normally I would go out and give them a bollocking but when I did that last year the police told me I was lucky to get off with a warning after 'threatening' them and that as there were more of them it would be me on the ******* as they would back each up.

My grey split-screen Morry was stolen from a car park years ago. The first I knew was when the police called me and said they were prosecuting me for parking on double yellow lines. The thieves ran the bearings and dumped it in the street. I've still got the bill for the Gold Seal replacement engine -- £5.
