I'm torn between laughing my head off and
one of my mates was in his works car park filling his boot with work stuff (no value to it) and behind him he was aware of a car coming into the car park, turn around and then two car doors slam shut. not sure if it was good timing on his behalf but he managed to get into his car and lock the doors just before these two guys tried get in (one either side). (this is in my warped mind the funny bit cos I know what his driving skills are like  ) he manages with plenty of revs to manoeuvre his car into a position to exit the car park. while trying to exit the car park the car that dropped to the scum bags off tries to block his exit - ended up hitting the side of his car but matey made his get away.
CCTV in place and monitored - good images apparently from 2 angles shows it to be (in their words) a 'vicious attack' by 3 youths of Asian appearance. so an interview with the police tonight to go through what happened and hand of the recordings showing the very distinctive car and number plate. oh the joys. |

Yep Birmingham broad day light.
Turns out the car they arrived in was on false plates. Having now seen the video my mate was extremely lucky in so much that 2 seconds could have seen him loose his car. Thankfully he get in his car and made his get away and the way he managed to avoid their car as it tried to block his way was genius 
Once again perhaps Mr Trump's comments about Brum appear to hold some truth |

I presume they weren't from either Birmingham or Rotherham?
The police officer asked what my mate did for a living and then suggested if he ever lost his job he'd easily get a job as a professional driver |

Is it really illegal to carry a loaded shotgun in a car ?

^^^If you saw what can happen if one should discharge by accident you wouldn't want to. Steve.

I have, and I think you'll find it was a joke. |
