Nasty pastimes

Just thought i would use the forum to pass on some local information, (well, local to north worcestershire).
I was requested to stop last night by the local plod, just as I was on the way home from a very enjoyable evening at the Fox & Anchor with the Midlands group. They were checking who I was, as there has been an increasing spate of Landrover thefts around the area Evil or Very Mad .
Apparently, someone has developed an unhealthy taste for our pride and joys! I realise there is nothing one can do if a lowlife has decided that he wants your D3, but I thought I would pass on the information just to raise awareness.
Of course, they might have just fancied a closer look at my fabulous vehicle and used this as a cunning "ruse", but I did ask them if they thought it was worth posting a note on the forum and they both agreed it might help.

There'd been reports that a group of Censored had been selling dodgy tyres and roller blinds in a pub car park whilst parked next to wacky backy smoking chavs, that's why you were stopped Wink Laughing Good to meet up with you last night 8)

Ahh, I should have realised it was all a friendly prank by my fellow D3'rs. I thought the full body search was a bit much tho lads.....
