Default Rant: Thieves and scum, the usual

As some of you may know, my car was nearly written off two weeks ago, en route to picking up my GFs new 200SX.

We've been pretty much out of it for the last two weeks, hardly left her flat due to injuries, but on Sunday she felt up to driving her car.

The alarm has been set off that many times that the battery is dead, and then left, it's putting out about 0.2V.

We get a new battery, come back and while we're swapping we notice that the rear 1/4 section has been keyed and someone has had a go at the lock.

I'm back in work now, which means I've had to return to my own place up in Liverpool and what do I find. I unbolt the mortice lock, turn the yale key and I can't open my front door because some ****** has tried to kick it in and mangled my door frame.

There's no point or conclusion to this I'm just pissed off and wanted to have a moan, sorry for wasting your time.

They just did
I dropped my Nokia 9210i and it broke quite spectularly, not a problem as I have a fully comp insurance policy.
Took it back to Carphone Warehouse and they really really didn't want to repair, wriggled and wriggled and eventually offered to knock £310 off the price of a 9500, making it £69.

And then I managed to get the 9210i sort of working again, enough that I'll be able to transferr my numbers tomorrow.

Mate, I know how you feel

Not only am I going through similar car related **** but we came home to find the back door broken into. Fortunately the alarm had done it's job and they'd abandoned the scene without any theft or other damage.
