    Or any type or weapon;)

    Reminds me of the old joke ... a man picks up a girl and they find a quiet alleyway to "do the do". A police constable walks by and encounters them:

    PC: Excuse me, please stop that
    Girl: Go <expletive> yourself
    PC: Excuse me, there's no need for that. Please stop what you're doing
    Girl: Go <expletive> yourself
    PC: Any more of that and you'll be arrested
    Girl: Go <expletive> yourself
    PC: OK sir, you're under arrest
    Man: Me? What have I done? What's the charge?
    PC: The charge? Having an offensive person on your weapon

    :D

    I'll get my coat .................
  • well , the police finally came , i gave them all 3 incident numbers , and explained what had been happening .

    they spoke to the girl that had been threatened and verbally abused.


    now regarding my motorcycles


    if you do not want them stealing them, park them in a friends garage , as we cannot offer routine patrols due to staff cutbacks

    you are on your own , there might as well not be a police service

    Just phone back once you've caught him and say "no need to come now, he's dead" and they will turn up really quickly.

    A lot of police nowadays are stuck behind computers.

    and they cannot cross correlate 3 x incidents , all at same address or close by and within 4-5 weeks of each other

    perhaps those "stuck behind computers" should learn how to use them
