Shoplifting
When I was young and impressionable and on holiday in France, I followed some friends into a sweet shop and we each stole something. I was so mortified by this, I returned them.
My lack of French hampered this somewhat - they had no idea why the small English boy wanted to add some chews to the open box, and saw it as an attempt by a nasty foreigner oik to contaminate their stock. Not my best day.
What have you lifted?

Filthy Phil
One of the earliest hereos i had was my mate Filthy Phil. This man was pure Pikey stock and could nick anything from anywhere, the only man i know to walk in a supermarket and come out with a trolley laden with food and electricals.
He would walk into an offie and then walk back out rattling like an alcoholic parkingsons victim in detox.
Why i aspired to be like him i dont know, but when you are a 12 year old boy these sort of people had a godlike status for me.
Last time i saw him was a few years ago when he was legging it down the street with two security guys after him, must be losing his touch.
Length ? He must have done some time in chokey.
