Default Word Of Warning::::UPDATED::::

Just a word of warning ppl about leaving keys for your cars in close proximity of your front doors.

Woke up today to find my missus 02 plate corsa nicked off our drive .How did they do you ask.Hooked the keys off the Side with a 6ft bamboo shoot with a hook on the end of it. Just had the police round and are now waiting for scenes of crime to turn up to dust for prints.Police thinks he knows who done it but wont say. BUT i have a few ppl on the case so looks like a few words will be spoken soon.

Missus is not a happy bunny.

Just don't say out loud at least it wasn't the cossie. Or you'll be hooked in the bean bag by the bamboo. If you know what I mean.

Sorry to hear that.

There was a gang in MK doing that about 3 years ago, never leave my keys downstairs now.

Hope they catch the fookers.

UPDATE: We have the car back. A friend of ours seen someone driving it yesterday around 6pm about 1/2 mile from my house so span his car round and chased it.They must have clocked him chasing them and parked it up and legged it He rang my missus who ran me.I then made a few calls and sent about 8 lads round the area to keep eye on car(As they had locked it.And still have the keys )And make a decent arrest(Incase he struggled )

Car is not damaged as far as know.Just used for a bit of joyriding and smoking in i believe.Aint seen it yet as it down the Plod yard until i get it tomorrow.Will be having a word with PC for a name now.As i dont think we have a chance of doing anyhting legal with them if they catch them.So will deal a bit of my justice on them.
