Just wondered if anyone else experienced any issues with their VW's last night - ours was broken in to outside our house, I only realised this morning when I noticed all the windows of the car were open.

On closer inspection, it seems they have taken out the lock from the driver side. Turns out this is a real oversight in VW security - all you have to do is shove a screwdriver in the lock and push, and all the windows come down and the alarm turns off!! Brilliant!

Anyway, there was literally nothing of any value in the car, I imagine to the disgust of the little sh*t who did it, apart from all our CD's which I then found scattered at the bottom of the road.

Anyway, I was just interested to see if anyone else had a similar thing happen recently.

good grief. For your information, I got the method from a publically viewable forum on VW passats. 'Now everyone has been told what to do'. Please, blame me if there is a spate of VW break ins in the area following my post. I'm sure it would be down to that entirely.

      Annoying words that have cropped up in our language

      By fishboy · Posted

      One more while I'm here, although more of the way a word is used, and whilst possibly pedantic it really does annoy me!! "Dilemma" Constantly used to describe any tricky decision, but the definition is a decision with only two options, both of which will have an equally bad outcome.  So a choice of whether to have cake, ice cream or chocolate is NOT A DILEMMA!!! See also "Decimate", which means to reduce by 10%, not just general widespread destruction... 😖

      Stolen - Cannondale Topstone 4

      By fishboy · Posted

      So sorry to hear this, makes me so angry that some scumbag thinks they can just take someone's transport, freedom, enjoyment away, and there's so little chance of them being caught or punished adequately.  If you haven't already, register it on BikeRegister and change the status to stolen, hopefully if any responsible person considers buying it then they'll check there first.  Report it to the Police - very little chance they're able to do anything, but it's important for the stats, which may eventually provoke action by the gov? Set up search alerts on Gumtree, eBay & Facebook Marketplace, but try to be as generic as possible - often they are listed as just "road bike" rather than the exact model.  I've also printed out flyers and dropped off at local bike shops in case the bike is brought in for repairs, but not sure how worthwhile that was. Hope this helps...

      JP Plastering - John McCann - Recommended Plasterer

      By Andy Want · Posted

      John has done a fantastic job plastering our bedroom. He boarded the ceiling & window bay then plastered both and the two remaining walls.  He always turns up on time and gets straight down to work, and leaves the room clean & tidy after. I thoroughly recommend John for any plastering work.
