    Wife caught a couple of youths trying our car door handle.

    Went out and told them to leave the car alone.

    I told her to ring the local police as I am sure our car wouldn't be the only target.
    Never has a man been heard to say on his death bed that he wishes he'd spent more time in the office.

        Tottenham, been here 2.5 years and not had any issues until the burglary recently, bar a smashed passenger side window abdout a week afte we moved in and they caught him on DNA evidence from blood in the car, shame it wasn't his wrist.

        Would have been ideal if the cctv had already been up. But hey.

          Trying for an unlocked car is hardly serious crime. A bet those 'youths' were private-school-kids wearing blazers

            As someone who works at a place that has cctv and often has to review footage I can tell you its pretty useless. They cover their heads, have caps, hoodies up. Can spot the cameras and look away from them. It doesnt seem to even have deterrent value.

              Great story, why don't you ring the CSI writers with that one?

                Sounds like they're just going to keep coming back. Have you tried using a baseball bat on one of them yet?

                  Maybe get one of those South African cars where the doors are electrified? Or can spit flame at the touch of a button?
