I'm not the first person to be burgled, and I know I wont be the last.
Yesterday, two stupid tw*ts thought it would be a good idea to break into our home through a £6,000 set of Oak folding/sliding doors (which they have knackered), to then trample crap through the house (after ruining both the front and back doors in vain), to then pinch a Sony Playstation, a small camera and around £500 in currency.
We have been lucky. They were too stupid to steal my collection of guitars, my wifes Jewellery or anything of any great value. More than that, I had an expensive camera lying about, which they didn't bother with either. It seems they can't be sold quickly enough to get a few quid up together...
What galls me is not the material things. I am away for two weeks from the middle of next week. How is my wife going to feel on her own at night...The little Sh*ts.
A prison sentence is no longer mandatory for breaking and entering, so even if they get caught, they will be straight out on the streets again.
The Silver Clould in all of this? The Police turned up on time, and a CSI officer came around and took footprints and fingerprints and he was very thorough. They may not be caught, but it is refreshing to know that the police didn't just issue a crime reference number and sit on their collective rear ends.
They have done around £7,000 of damage to steal around £1,000 of goods and cash. How much I pity them for not having 3 brain cells to rub together collectively. How pathetic!
Cheers,
Graham.
