MegaSack DRAW - This year's winner is user - rgwb
We will be in touch
Our offices were burgled yet again on Monday night. They didn't get owt off me this time, but cleaned out the office across from me
I've just watched the CCTV footage. It shows a right likely looking little pair of scrotes going about their 'business'. They obviously do this kind of thing all the time. But I was genuinely shocked at just how fast and organised they are
So how long does the STW massive think it would take to break in through the front door, run up a flight of stairs then down a corridor, crow bar a pretty substantial door open, unplug 4 imacs (the big uns with studio displays) and be back down the stairs and into a waiting car?
Have a guess? Go on. We put a stopwatch on it yesterday
The closest guess wins a signed copy of my latest insurance claim
4mins 39seconds
2 mins 48 seconds?
Shame they can't put all that effort into earning a real wage.
3mins 47secs
1m 17s
Ooooo! A competition. How can I resist....
5 minutes 10 seconds
2 mins.

if there was 4 of them (one putor each) sub 1 min.
58 sec.
43 secs?
If i win 50% of loan would be better
42 seconds
I've just mentally broken in through the front door, run up a flight of stairs then down a corridor, crow barred a pretty substantial door open, unplugged 4 imacs (the big uns with studio displays) and run down the stairs and into a waiting car.
it took me 19.8 seconds.
I did know where i was going, though, and the plugs didn't have those screw in ports.
Bang on!!! 42 seconds from door to door
Work off Deansgate don't you Binners? I think i'd better get some insurance.
I suspect it might be the same lot that did our offices a month ago. They clearly knew exactly what they were after and where it was
I spend my waking hours thinking of elaborate and slow deaths for them. I still can't come up with anything extreme enough though
42 seconds for £4-5000 worth of stuff? That equates to £240,000 per hour, or £60,000 each.
Shame they can't put all that effort into earning a real wage.
Thats getting close to my hourly rate! The cads!
move the computers this time? Or better yet, pile up empty mac boxes in corner of room. fill boxes with bricks and turd. laugh.
Wow, that's fast... They'd make excellent staff for a removals company 😉
I used to live not-too-far away from the (in)famous Gurnos Estate in Merthyr - It was widely rumoured that the local chavs could steal the wheels off your car, providing you were travelling at less than 10mph 😆
I often wondered why F1 teams didn't rock up there, and recruit their pit crews from the wide selection of wheel-stealing talent available. All they'd have to do would be to train the little buggers NOT to run off once they've removed the wheel!!
sounds like an inside job
who does your cleaning?
How did they get in through door?
Had a leaflet through the door once recommending that any glass front doors were replaced with solid wood ones as the latter should withstand attack for 3 minutes, as opposed for the 7 seconds for a glass door.
Obviously i was in rented accomodation and slamming the door hard caused some of the glass panes to fall out....
42 seconds?
Bloody hell! On the one hand, you have to give it to them for trying. On the other, people like that need stringing up by the nads and beating with sticks.
I must be doing something wrong.......I would have knocked on the door and waited 42 seconds to see if anybody answered first
Robbed again?!?
Admit it Binners, you're the inside man aren't you? 🙂
TWI- Brawn tried. Wheels were changed in record time. The problem was that after 42 seconds the car had been resprayed and sold to Red Bull!
Sounds like a theft version of Jeux Sans Frontiers.
If only you could do it whilst they were dressed as penguins, trying to steal and carry the imacs, whilst on a large roundabout, with security throwing buckets of coloured water at them, that would really be worth watching.......
Are you in Bristol ?
Only me thinking Steelfreak was sat in the getaway car with stopwtatch in hand? 🙂
