Well, we were sitting in our office happily working away when we were victims of, well, a stick-up. Two "youths", one armed with a crowbar and the other threatening to "stab us" walked in and stole 2 wallets, 2 bags and my laptop.
This makes me quite angry because I did what I always thought I would never do. I froze. The whole thing lasted about 60 seconds and wasn't very pleasant..
On the upside I did spend half an hour driving around in an unmarked police car with the sirens going looking for said bastards..
So here's some advice. Keep you office doors closed OK? Its not a nice experience to have a crowbar/knife in your face.

Thing is, now that the shock and fear has gone we're all fucking angry. I'd like to see these two fucks again and seriously kick the shite out of them.
But that's probably the 2 pints I had talking.

But there were two of them and two of us (with another in the loo) and we're all bigger than them.
But the police said we did the right thing.
On that note, I salute the Rozzers in this area - when I was in the car with them looking at suspects they'd already picked up (5 of em) I sorta realised how together the police are..
So be nice to them.. They do try.

The fact that you own a laptop and have a wallet that's worth stealing means you have accomplished something. The person that stole it, even if they don't get caught, will always be a thief. You can replace material wealth, even if it's not insured, because they can't steal the talent and intelligence that allowed you to acquire it; talent and intelligence that they'll never have.
