Car thieves - take a long, hard look at yourselves

[a bit dizzee]

My dear old mum and dad popped down for a few days after Christmas. Being of a certain age, they charged thoughtlessly from the car on arrival in ED, armed with festive booze and gifts, and left the keys in the ignition. Here they remained for three days and nights, with the car (05 BMW) unlocked, on the street, parked helpfully under a streetlight.

Whilst it is encouraging to see our footballers and cricketers finally get their act together, car theft is an area in which we have traditionally led Europe. South London has long been a home to some of our best performers in the field, and to see them miss a sitter like this makes me concerned for the future. Have they had it too good for too long? Has the influx or foreign talent led to an erosion of new blood coming through? Are the new Academys to blame?

Back to basics, lads. This simply isn't good enough.

"And where were you ? "

"And where were you?"

Keeping a look out!!

Several months ago (back when it was warmer) I left the wondow on the footpath side of my car wound completly down all night and half of the next day, yet nothing had been touched. A gimmie if ever I saw one.
