Bah!
Reminds me of when I came back to my bicycle to find that some arse had nicked the nice chunky lock, and left the bike behind...

That reminds me of the time I got mugged
by 4 sturdy youths in the park, who rifled through my student rucksack, sniffed at my assorted CDs and rubbish old walkman, and left without taking a thing.

I was left waving after them shouting "What's wrong with Elvis Costello you philistines!"
