We had what is being referred to as an intruder and, like good householders who are bricking it, we set the dogs on 'em (little furry dogs, not nasty skin-head dogs) and the copper knew us well (we had a half way house for convicts who were leaving prison) and so told us not to mentio this - turns out that if the dog even growls at a burglar you can be done (and will be done - a caught robber is going to have a brief) for assault and that is likely to be a bargaining tool for mr knicker bollocks.

because when some drunken person knocked me of my bike, he tried to drive away, so I hit him full in the face with my crash helmet and broke the bastards eye socket. The police said this was reasonable behaviour because I was in fear for my own safety (after having already been hit once by the drunken old fucker). He did a runner back to Ireland before it came to court. Bastard.
