It turns out I am a complete twat (no surprises there, eh?)
I have a friend whose cousin was a policeman and was sent down about ten-twelve years ago for committing fraud by torching a car in France with a couple of friends and claiming on the insurance. It was understandably difficult for the entire family.

During this time he had also been having problems with his cheap and cheerful moped and thus I found myself a matter of weeks after the sentence had been passed down suggesting to my mate that the best way of dealing with his lemon of a moped would be to "Take it to France and torch it. You never know you might get away with it this time." Apparently this was TOO SOON.
