keeps only a TV instruction manual in a safe? People who enjoy ****ing off burglars. I had a safe stolen from a launderette I used to own - they just picked it up and went, and it was BIG. Although locked, all that was in it was unused receipt books - the cash was hidden elsewhere G AWEM |

We never did manage to open that bonnet. -- Adam |

The person who uses the manual as an unencryption key for their records of
ill gotten gains I'd suspect. Did I not read a mystery at some point where a villain kept gardening mags in a safe and use a certain series of articles to encrypt things.

We found it in my mates new lockup. An hour and all I got was the bloody instruction manual for a Hinari TV. OK. So, I may have need of your services for a few hours. Will you accept Samsung and Panasonic manuals, or does it have to be Hinari? |

When I was on the road I kept the laptop in what appeared to be an extra large Pizza Box complete with stains from leaked toppings still on it. It was actually a steel box bolted to the passenger foot well floor but placing a pizza box on top one day disguised it so well I decided to stick the parts of the cardboard carton onto the steel as a permanent fixing. The van window did get broken in a dodgy area at one time and they took an empty makita cordless drill case also left for the eventuality. The laptop was left undiscovered and the actual tools were in a locked steel tool compartment bolted in the rear of the van. G.Harman |
