Glovers Court Preston - nothing changed there then. That's where I was daft enough to park my car one Saturday, when I went to work. It was broken into and damaged. The culprits were seen by a lady and were already known to the police. They were then aged 8.

Pipie the site is falling over in the UK so no chance with TRNC speeds leave it a day or so to calm down

I bet the Police are not happy about these figures being published.

Hi Kav



Last night I left my car keys in the door of my Fiesta parked in a cul de sac in Newport, Isle of Wight as I struggled with some bags into the house. There is a also a public footpath used by kids to get to the local High School that runs by the bottom of this close. When I couldn't find my keys this morning at 8:30 I thought OMG! and rushed out of the back gate, down the footpath and into the close to find them still sticking out of the door of the car. Its another world down here. Lem

Lemtich, it's nice that you live in a place like that. But the truth is that many other places in UK the car would have gone, and everything else plundered with the keys on the ring...
