Only just transferred to Brum. Car Park off Broad Street behind my new office.My old fishing basket (yes-basket!) rods etc. in my Hillman Avenger.The basket in the boot. The beggars had taken a wrench to the boot lock which protuded and turned the whole lock in its seating!!That basket was unique,had aluminium corners with a block, one on each corner.Didn't warp like earlier baskets.They didn't manage to get the rods!! The spare wheel had gone though.
Subsequently spotted a couple of guys hanging about in the Car Park and rang the police. Turned out to be the old Bill themselves . I wasn't the only one who'd been robbed!! My colleague came back to find his sports car on bricks. They'd nicked the wheels!!
