Travelling back from a visit to Canterbury along the M2 near the Medway
bridge I was overtook an NHS van which had a sign stating that no drugs, cash or oxygen was left in the vehicle overnight. Nothing unusual in that area, perhaps, but I must admit surprise when the next truck I passed had a similar notice which stated that no potatoes are left in this truck overnight. Considering all the goods travelling through Kent to and from Dover the local miscreants cannot be very enterprising. PJ |

Well the one that attempted to burgle my lace a few weeks ago was very enterprising ! So much so he got wedged in a small window in a house in West Malling and was hauled bodily through it by the enraged owner of the property who then proceeded to "restrain" him until the Police arrived and nicked him He copped to 50 burglaries in the Kent area and I understand from the police that he is now recovering from being sat on by the guy that caught him...... All 22 stone of him ! |

Just replace it with 20 or so C02 fire extinguishers and tell the immigrants they are heaters when they let them all off at once |

"ARWadsworth" , randomly hit the keyboard and wrote: I liked the sign that said "Well Driven? If YES the call the police as this van is stolen" Or, "How's my driving? Call our Mam on 07nnn nnnnnn. She worries". Or, "Driven badly? Ring 0800 **** YOU". -- Hugo Nebula "If no-one on the internet wants a piece of this, just how far from the pack have I strayed"? |
