    We've only had the car broken into once in 30-odd years, although on that occasion the thief went to the trouble of finding the stereo face, which was craftily hidden under a floor mat, and plugging it on in order to eject dad's Duane Eddy tape and throw it on the floor. I think dad was more offended than angry. The thief must've really hated twangy guitars.

    One of the pitfalls of putting a charlton sticker on your window, which advertises the fact "Hey, Im watching the game, so won't be back until 5pm".............

    A little reminder that the £5 car park up Victoria Road (just before the Rose of Denmark) is no longer operating, so that is one less place to park.

    Thanks; hadn't realised. Any suggestions for an alternative, please.
  • Fella who lives opposite me had his car done on sunday night,the little darlings couldnt nick it so set 3 fires in it trying to torch it. They took a can of expanding foam and a tube of mastic out of it and proceeded to spray cars with foam and mastic peoples car locks,untold damage caused and his car has been written off. Nice.

    Put an Arsenal sticker on your windscreen. Would-be robbers will assume you have nothing of value because you spend all your disposable value on Emirates tickets.

    I'd rather have my window smashed than put an arsenal sticker on it.

    If they are caught I would like to volunteer to flambe their genitalia with a WW2 flame thrower. I can be contacted on
