Post by: ariston on October 19, 2008, 11:03:11 AM sure you can get in trouble for a gun. A decorative sword on the wall or a big hammer where you have been doing some repairs could easily be grabbed in self defence though I believe ;)
probably lucky you got knocked out early enough to get home though or you may have bubbled and gone home to find everything you own gone.

Hope you're looking at getting some proper locks on your doors now? You can fart and open a door that only has a yale lock on it - it's only as strong as the screws holding it to the door. You need a decent mortice lock. In fact your household insurance can be invalid if you don't have a mortice lock on the door (worth checking your policy). Might also be worth getting an alarm as well? Just for peace of mind when you're in the house. You might not hear someone getting in through a door/window, but you'd hear if your alarm went off - and it would probably scare them off as well. Glad you're OK though. Stuff can be replaced, you can't. Title: Re: fml, bust thanet, drive home, go sleep, wake up and ppl are robbing my house.

It reminded me of an incident back at home in Ireland. I was asleep in bed and my father came into the room at about 3am "Where's your gun” says he (I had a shotgun in the wardrobe) “What’s up Da” says I “Some bastard’s in the shop” says he (we had a small supermarket) Now my father was 6’ 3” and worked on the buildings all his life so I says “Don’t mind the gun Da we can sort ‘em out” “The gun” says he He lifted the gun and loaded two cartridges into it and slung the belt over his shoulder. We walked through the kitchen to the dividing door between the house and the shop and a more comical pair you never did see. Him with his long johns on and me in my underpants. “Da, put the gun away” Unprintable reply about the suspect parentage of anyone misfortunate enough to be in the shop. We walked into the shop and a shadow passed the front window and he let fly with both barrels. The window took the brunt of the discharge and the next few frames are indelibly etched in my mind. The window exploded outwards and he took off, breaking open the gun and feeding in two more shells, leapt through the shattered window, like a scene out of Commando, with me running after him screaming at him to put down the fecking gun. We ran into the road and there was two youths legging it like Ben (http://www.blondepoker.com/blondepedia/blondepedia_view_player.php?player_id=483) Johnson (http://www.blondepoker.com/blondepedia/blondepedia_view_player.php?player_id=483) on speed and bugger me didn’t he let fly again. They were luckily out of the guns effective range but might have got a couple of stingers as they seemed to increase speed exponentially. “Fuckers” says he and promptly handed me the gun and went to get some chipboard to fix the window. The Guards came the next day to investigate a complaint about a discharge of a firearm at 3am in the morning and asked the old lad what happenend "Nothing" says he "what broke the glass" says the Guard "A bicycle" says he (it didn't take Poirot to see that glass was all on the outside) "Is that true Gerard ?" the Guard says to me "Yes Guard" says I They left warning my father that they would be investgating futher (they didn't) "Fuckers" says he Strangely enough we were never robbed again………… |
