In the form of two bicycles.

Mine, and my sisters.

Mine had full suspension. Hers did not. Hers was the only way she had to get to university and back.

Stolen from our garage.

Our house.

Right under our noses.

My bike was the only way I was going to get a holiday this year. Me and my mates were intending to go youth hosteling.

And now I will probably never see it again.

Because of some idiot.

Probably the builders who were working on a house across the road from us.

They were there all day. The bikes were stolen during the only 30 minutes that all of my family were out of the house.

I had just gone to work. To earn some honest money. My dad was at work, earning honest money. My sister was at work, earning honest money.

And some idiot simply took what will cost me 50 hours of work to replace.

That isn't including customisations I made to it.

My sister will probably never replace hers. She's a pikey student.

Tommorow, the builders return.

They have left scaffolding up.

I intend to walk over to them, and ask them. If they say no, I will punch them in the face. Rather hard.

They'll be bigger than me. I'm not bothered. I dont mind pain.

I am rather annoyed.

From my house, while I was out at work.

But there are a lot of people that watch your house, to see when you go.

You'd be surprised. One time, my mum was driving back home. She pulled into the street, to see a white unmarked van outside our house. As she pulled up behind the van (as the van was taking her normal parking space), a man ran up our drive (away from the house), got in the van, and sped off really quickly away from the house.

She had just popped out to the local shops, for a 2 minute journey. The people must have seen her leave, and taken a chance. It was lucky she got back, nothing was stolen.

I can see why you think it was the builders. Just don't point fingers.

That's a bit crap.

Don't go punching them in the face, ask them if they saw anybody take them.

Or something

Sorry but i needed it real bad,
I'll bring it back tomoz.

To be serious though,
Thats real bad to have your bike stolen....... especially one that you say is customised and got suspention and all.
My dads bike was like that and it got nicked from out of the shed.
We also had our Scenic car stolen from right infront of us,
someone just ran up to the car when everyone was out of it and the engine was still running coz my dad was pulling the caravan hook thing onto the thing that you put it on and they got in and just rode off.
If it wasnt my car and i saw that happen i wouldve laughed but because it was then it was bad.

I feel for you dude,
Claim insurance or something.

Also,
Even if it wasnt the builders that stole it just give them a punch anyway.
If you find out that they didnt nick it just say that the punch was for making so much noice and mess.
Everytime a builder comes round mine they always make a mess and make loads of noice.

Go kick thier as**s.

Ouch,

I suggest you go around to all your neighbours houses and punch them all and if they ask why just tell them your story..

I think that's not too bad is it?

Leave the builders though, they might bury you in their cement or something. :P

just claim it off insurance

unless you left a door open

as long as someone broke in to your garage you can get a new boke from insurence.

If you left a door open you can;t and you are silly if you did
