Agent can't get hold of the owner, no suprise there........ But he did say he is trying to get someone to board it up today but it might not be until tomorrow. He is quite a decent chap really.
That's rot!
A boardup is available 24 hours a day. He's being a tight wad. He'll have to pay more because it's a bank holiday.0 -
At least it could have been worse...

It was vandalism, not a crime in progress and that's why the police took an hour and a half to show up. You were lucky, I had to wait 12 hours for them once0

When my windows get broken I wait 3 days for the police. Sure going to catch the culprits that way, right? :rolleyes:Weight loss November 09-January 10: [STRIKE]13lbs[/STRIKE] [STRIKE]20lbs[/STRIKE] 27lbs! :j0

If idiots are smashing windows what do you expect? You can't have a bobby within a 200 yard dash of every household in the country, after all0

"What has this to do with your problem? "
police said they would have had a chance at catching them if they had gotten there quickly. When it's midnight and my family is asleep (have a 5yr old) and someone puts 4 bricks through my windows, I consider this emergency enough to have some assistance within a reasonable time.
I had no problem with the procedure after they turned up, the police are fine, there just isn't enough of them.
Moan moan, we are healthy at least.0 -

too true, on the other side if you had gone out there and sorted it out yourself they would have been round straight away
too much red tape nowadays with the police, they can do anything. Listen to what people say, but watch what people what people do!!0
