| There’s a team working Bungendore at the moment. A lot of break ins and vehicle thefts and several bikes have been taken and torched. While Guzzis and Aprilias are unlikely to be targeted by these assholes I’ve decided that discretion is the better part of valour and the GRiSO is sleeping at the locked and alarmed workshop rather than living in my less secure garage at home.
This happens periodically in small country towns one advantage we have is that we’re in the ‘Old’ part of the village and our house and block looks like it’s the domicile of impoverished hillbillies! Professional thieves are far more likely to make a bee line for the new estates full of hideous McMansions on the other side of the creek that will be stuffed full of enormous flat screen TV’s and expensive cars being purchased on the never-never but you can never be too careful.

| Possibly Queanbeyan or Goulburn based? Feckless twats probably doing it for kicks. Those burgs seem to be riddled with undesirables. Or is it a local crew, seen drinking at the Royal? | |

| There have been a few kids breaking into cars but this mob are pro’s. Thry’re doing A sweep. They’ll most likely move on in a few days as the town catches on and the walloper presence lifts for a bit.
Most likely from Sydney would be my guess. Joy riders are home grown or Queanbeyan. | |

 We've got a whole new batch of criminals to send to Oz if we can persuade them to take delivery. This time there is a international twists with scumbags from all over eastern Europe courtesy of our membership of the EU. Of particular interest might be Romanian gypsies specialising in begging and ATM fraud or if real nasty bastards are required the Albanians are up there with the best. Russians are also available but they tend to be into money laundering and of course chemical weapon poisoning. | |

| Dave & Dave, its taken us 250 years to learn the principles of the boomerang, and we are keeping it as a national secret. We can even make Kiwis go back home now, so we are no longer the international dumping ground for everybody else's trash. |

| It's true England sent 10% of their criminals to Australia. The other 90% stayed in England. | |

| Just an observation ............by the continuing demonstrations/rallies of our countries indigenous folks, I think I can safely say that our gummint has failed in all their attempts over the last 200 years, to successfully integrate 2 different cultures.
Therefore I ask, what makes them think we can have have successful multiculturalism?
Just sayin ...................... |
