Just to raise awareness of a spate of 4x4 thefts in Norfolk overnight (12 - 13 November). One of these was a Land Rover Discovery. I just put this up on the Norfolk Constabulary site - and thought it would be worth letting you lot know too :) : Norfolk Constabulary: Increase of thefts of 4x4...

And I have no problem with that :) In fact, it provides me with much hilarity when people take it on themselves to mock me..and my many, many **** ups :D Alys

And you don't think I tried that?! :eek: Alys

I take them off for driving :) nice and illegal. Alys

Naa, managed to shift them a few years a go now. Nasty blighters :rolleyes: Alys

Because I don't bleed for a week - so ner :D I've got an easy life. And I would have (attempted to) push him out if a) I hadn't been late for work and b) hadn't have been wearing high heels that stopped me from being able to walk properly in the first place :p Alys

I know :( poor old thing must be feeling like a right plonker being stuck there in full view of everybody! And luckily for him, I've got some spare propshafts sitting waiting for him tonight. Alys

Damn, do you reckon? :( :( It was a Muller Light as well! Thank god it wasn't a regular yogurt - I'd never get out! Alys

I don't want no bloody mud tyres on the poor old bus - he'd fall to bits at the sight of 'em!! As for the prop, I've got one in my "stores" (aka a manky old shed) - and should get it fitted tonight. Bloody non-4x4 Land Rover... :doh: Alys

Lol, he is stuck there until the other half drags him out with my 2 1/4 petrol later on this evening! He's not the most err..wonderful LR when it comes to "off roading" (!!) - even in my own muddy garden :( Alys

Sod's Law has struck again - and this time, it was muddy and cold, with a spot or two of rain! We got Douglas back on the road yesterday, with his new gearbox (minus o/d for the time being) in and had a really good day running him around the countryside to wake him up again. So, first thing...

I'll help ya out if you need it. It's what I do for a living...supposidly :) Alys

I'm quite sure my over-zealous puppy-dog would lick any potential thief into submission, before he/she got round to pinching anything. Alys

I try to comfort myself in the niave belief that my 1960 Series 2 is so ratty and beaten up that no one would ever want to steal him. If they did, they'd soon try to return him due to his hideous temprament and dislike of 3rd and 4th gear. I'd hear anyone trying to steal him a mile off by just...

Very tempting indeed. Don't know if our offroading Disco is up to it at the moment though - let alone trailering it there :( Alys

Yup, NFU are very good for younger drivers. Although, saying that, I did nicely with Lancaster. I'm 22, 5 months with a full driving liscense and insure two Landys, fully comp, for under £700 in total. Alys

I think I still have a trebuchet that I made in Design Technology classes many years a go. Don't think it would be much cop though. But yes, if you can't defend your own property in a substantive way, we all may as well put huge signs up saying "Oi, you - yes, you - take what ever you...

Only a couple of scratches then? And I'm trying so hard not to quote the Black Knight in Monty Python :( Black Knight: 'Tis but a scratch! King Arthur: A scratch? Your arm's off! Black Knight: No, it isn't! King Arthur: Well, what's that then? King Arthur: I've had worse. King...

Oooh good fun :) Haven't been over there yet - need to take the Disco out for some fun soon. And Richard, depends on how knackered the kidney is I suppose. Mine is in very good nick due to lack of alcohol, so I should think I could get a fair bit on the black market (aka nhs) for it ;) Alys
