  1. I mentioned a dumped bike a little while back. I'd not got round to
    reporting it to the police. I had gone to get the serial, but it was caked
    in muck. So just hadn't got round to it. Anyway, I did bring it into the
    same confines of our secure underground car park. Well, saefeish. One of the
    other residents has decided that both wheels needed hammering to bits and
    vandalised it to the point of no return. I think they left the frame alone.
    Anyway, from a bike that just needed a saddle, it's gone to a complete mess.

    So, belatedly, I've been to the cop shop to get advice and am returning in
    an hour or so with serial etc. Unfortunately I am not able to report it as
    vandalised, because it's not mine. But I really want the person who did it,
    to think about their actions. I think I know who it is, but no proof. But
    there's only one [censored] in the block who has a (seemingly) paricularly low IQ
    that I think would do something like that.

    And I really want my cat, Felix, to learn to play a decent game of
    chess. It's about as likely to happen.

    Funnily enough, I was thinking cat/dog poo on their car .. thought about my
    own, but DNA and all that ...

    That's not making him think - that's just revenge. The proper way to do
    it would be to get a JCB and make a good old job of his car wheels.
    Better be sure you've got the right man though, and it's also quite
    difficult to be stealthy with a JCB in an underground car park.

    True, I was honestly thinking of leaving a note on it saying that it had
    already been reported and now criminal damage has been reported seperately.

    But I think I'll just see if the police find the owner. Out of interest,
    anyone know where Kingston-on-Thames police auction off the found bikes? The
    officer I spoke to didn't give the impression anyone ever gets their bikes
    back.
