Originally posted by Whorty View PostSomeone tried to mug me once there when finished working late on a client site. Worst attempt at a mugging ever - Swindon even has crap muggers!
True story ..... me and colleague from Deloitte just finished late night at client. Walking to taxi rank when chap walks up to us, takes an inhale of a helium balloon and says "give me your wallet". I asked him why he took an inhale of helium first, and he said it was to disguise his voice so I wouldn't be able to describe it to police. I pointed out that I can see what he looks like (a little runt, by the way) so I don't need to hear him to describe him to police. I then duly told him to flunk off. He said, yeah, fair enough, worth a try though eh? Then walked off. See, worse attempted mugging ever!
I bet this guy, if he's not in jail, voted for Brexit
