    .... by the fucking muppet show by the looks of it.

    They somehow got the sliding door open, got in through the downstairs
    loo window, nicked my mobile phone, all the car/bike/house keys and my
    PDA.

    And my mail. Which was nothing but a bunch of bank statements and two
    Easter greeting cards.

    The garage door was open, both the Bimota and the Morini are still
    there (the Pan's at the workshop anyway) and all my comedy heaps are
    still out there as well.

    Arse. That'll be the day gone waiting for a locksmith to turn up and
    change all the locks on the house.

    Anybody got a clever idea as to how to immobilise cars that I don't
    have keys for? Get some clamping cowboys 'round?

    We got burgled once, when I was young and lived at home. They went
    through everything, looking foe money and stuff. It wasn't a nice
    feeling to think that someone went through all your things.
    Unplug the fuel injection pumps, if accessable. Take the wheels off and
    put of axle stands? Swap the return and petrol supply pipes around if
    fitted? Drop the gear linkage off the stick?

    Reading your posts makes me realise how lucky my life is.

    Thank you for the therapy (what happened to that band?)

    Timo Geusch <> somehow managed to post:

    <bad stuff snipped>

    Unlucky. Compared to you, I awoke this morning, being kissed gently on
    the penis by a virgin, whilst watching bunnies skip joyfully across a
    flower strewn meadow.

    *Never* come within 500 yds of my house/bike/car, please.

    I think Timo had the same experience, but then he woke up. ;-)

    Hope you've been in touch with the bank, seeing as these scrotes now
    have your bank account details?

    Bad luck man.

    See if you can get owners of the same model bikes to swap ignition barrels
    with you. Get in touch with the owners clubs.

    Sorry to hear about that, it must be quite horrid :-(
    Perhaps they wanted a reliable get away vehicle? ;-p
    The trouble with most external household doors is that they won't stop even
    a vaguely determined crook from entering your premises. There was a telly
    programme a couple of years ago where a reformed burglar showed people just
    how easy it was to break into their homes, and it turned out to be very
    easy. As it happens I used to have to break into my own home when I was a
    teenager if I had stayed out too late (my folks used to lock the doors from
    the inside, most likely so that they could give me a telling off for being
    out so late, which is why I learned to break in)... being a family newsgroup
    (laugh!) I won't explain exactly how I used to do it but suffice it to say
    that a locked back door presented me with no problems at all, after a bit of
    practice I could be through it and have relocked it so that you would never
    know I'd opened it in about two minutes, peasy, very peasy, and yes I do
    take appropriate precautions with my own back door these days :) (My
    brother really stuffed up one night, I *had* shown him how to get through
    the back door but he was too pissed, stupid, or both at the time so he broke
    a window instead... I think they heard the ructions from that one in
    northern France <g>).

    Anyway, what I'm suggesting is that you get proper locks and strong stuff
    for your doors and windows, cos you never know if the scrotes will come back
    for another go. Costs a fair bit mind.
    Mate of mine has loads of wheel clamps, got his own clamping business, but
    he lives in Southend and would probably charge you £60 a pop to take the
    clamps back off again... other than that, erm... take the spark plugs out?
    Remove the rotor-arm (if your car has one)?, remove the fuses? Disconnect
    the throttle cable? Drain the tank (bit drastic)? There must be zillions of
    ways to effectively immobilise a car, I wonder how car show rooms do it.

    tallbloke was seen penning the following ode to ... whatever:
    Hurkhurk. We're talking about the Bimota here, and the Morini.

    Number of known Morinis of this particular model in the UK: 1
    Number of Bimota YB7s in the UK: 5-10, if that many.

    I'll be going for new locks then...

    Ah, so it wasn't just my dad then... What the hell is up with that? You
    would think after the fourth or fifth time of putting the deadbolts across
    and *still* waking up to find me tucked up in bed, they would give it a
    fucking rest. It wouldn't have bothered me so much if he'd locked up like
    that all the time, but he didn't when he knew we were in the house.

    Parents. Who'd have 'em?

    Commiserations.
    The fucking cunts.
    But even if they did come back for them, they'd only get a few hundred
    yards before something blew up :)

    Oh arse. Commiserations. With luck they'll have been exposed to a field
    of Geusch particles and everything they touch in future will break.
    Get Timo to... Oh. Wait...

    Do you know anyone with a caravan? You can get wheel clamps fairly easy
    from a caravanning place if not.
