    Yes but it'd be better moved somewhere (anywhere) apart from the property while the heat is still on. Bury it in some woods or summat because if plod does come round (and there's a good chance someone will inform or have suspicions ("I didn't see Dave all Easter bank holiday, and I know he had access to one of them core drills..")) then they have all the evidence they need.

    If there's nowt on the premises but there's other evidence, at the very least they've got a nest egg they can dig up when they get out of chokey.

    well if they can't explain where the contents come from that would be a pretty good start.

    It's going to make life difficult for plod if there is a big bag of loot, and the owners can't identify what is theirs...

    Any idea why the cops didn't respond to the initial alarm. It all seems to be hush hush on that bit.

    We're mostly contractors here. So is it unreasonable to expect a little contractual ability?

    Just suggesting that you learn a few simple spelling rules so that you don't come across as quite such an uneducated, ignorant moron.

    Like those people who go abroad on holidays, suffer illness/death or whatever then whine about it when they're stuck. Pisses me off.

    Similarly, when you are contracting "it is", the "i" in "is" is missing. So the contraction is "it's". It's really not very difficult.
