And the CCTV has paid off!

Found a really really flat pigeon at the bottom of the shutters today. :?

Go to playback and select Roller Shutter 02/08/08 20:15 and a prize for who can work out what happened. Wait for the Volvo to leave.

This is going to be a long running thread.

Home for lunch today, hear car alarm and bolt down too late to see anything. Check out CCTV and at 13:40 catch some wee pecker playing with the stalks and taking photays of himself. :x

Be speaking with the local community rozzer again. :cry:

Little bugger, hopefully he will get "spoken to" and the word will be out to leave well alone.

And Ro55 pigeon flying rat vermin scum are fair game too.

Its just too much temptation for f.ucktards to not mess with it. :twisted:

When I was away, I came back to rubbish in the car (fag packets, cans) and the wipers / indicators on. Nowt you can do but cover it, but I would guess it would need to be a lockable cover. I am pretty sure you can get ones that are mega tough and also have a steel cable inside a-la-roof?

Sanj.
Your 340R probably attracts as much attention as my Westfield Megablade got.
Every kid wants to sit in it - touch it etc...
(which is fine, providing they are careful...

I parked the Westie up & about 6 kids wanted to sit in etc...
So, i let them sit in it (supervised)
One boy (10ish) got out the passenger seat & stood on the backbox (using it as a side step) & cracked one of the welds on the S/S manifold ......
Cost me £50 to get it fixed....

Get a car cover for it......
