    Btw, those elevated crossing/speed bumps on the main high street are a bastard!

    Last year some knob prised my filler door off removed the petrol cap and left a nice scratch down the side of the car. I expect more of this now petrol has become very valuable.

    Any proper theif would have know it was easier to cut the fuel line. Still hopefully they got a mouth full of Petrol!

    I had a pedestrian deliberately knock the mirror off the side of my car whilst I was turning into a car park. It's at times like that I wish I had a temper, but no I didn't leap out of the car and introduce his face to my fist. What is it about soft squidgy pedestrians that make them think they should have right of way over 1 1/2 tonnes of japanese metal?

    That's what you get for going to Bristol I guess.

    Were you blocking a road ? sometimes people get angry and turn the mirrors in, so they can get past(particularly bin wagons). Never heard of somone getting a mirror unscrewed though
