If your planning on driving around Sheffield in the near future keep your windows up and doors locked. A chap tried to relieve me of F900 yesterday evening. Was stopped at Traffic lights with not much else about, passenger door opens and dodgy looking character appears in the passenger seat requesting I exit my vehicle post haste (or words to that effect). Needless to say I wasn't too keen on this idea and the ciggy I was smoking at the time found its way to said characters mug rather rapidly followed by the large maglight thats clipped under the drivers seat at which point he made his excuses and left (or something to that effect ;-)). Obviously reported to the Police (minus the ciggy and maglight part) for all the good it'll do. Chap behind the desk mentioned that its getting quite common now and really its the only way for them to nick anything with decent security. All I need now is for him to turn up at the Sheffield nick reporting he's been assaulted and that would really finish off a stunning week nicely :-(. Matt P.S. Note for any US readers: In the UK if you try to defend yourself or your property its normaly you who end up in the dock whilst the crim gets a mild slap on the wrists and a fortnight in the Bahamas. Seriously!!!
