Be fair to say that the 737 could replace the Dakota as "Aircraft most able to withstand abuse"... the DC3 having a reputation for being indestructible

I did notice there's a chunk out of the horizontal stabiliser on some of the shots of that incident. Would have been a different story if that had been properly taken out!

The winkers that broke into my house last year....

Stole the hifi/camera/designer jacket/james bond dvd collection/found my floor safe and managed to rip it out even tho it was bolted to the floor with 4 bolts! and took it with them!/and various other bits and pieces

The police managed to work out (by witness statements of my neighbours) that they were probably a gang of 4/5 and probably Romanian!

And that was the end of it......never caught

Floor safe ! That's a bit worrying as I assume it was well hidden

Well. My car was broken into last night, stereo was stolen, also my tool box which stays in the car, the tools can be replaced, it's all the little clips, bolts bits n Bob's acquired over the years, the stereo was more sentimental value as it was my brother's, passed away few years back,
 I don't wish them a horrible death o no, death is to good, maybe a contaminated wrap, and I can watch them beg, then chain them to a tree and keep them alive for a week or too, then they will beg to die as it's better than life.

I don't support the death penalty, because I'm in favour of making these bastards existence a miserable one for the rest of their natural lives.  It dosn't have to be expensive either, a bare cell with some bread and water pushed under the door now and again would do!

Floor safe is probably the wrong description....it was a smallish but very heavy safe, bolted down to the floorboards upstairs in a cupboard behind a wooden door, with various empty sports bags piled on top.....so you couldn't see it unless you moved the bags.....unfortunately for me, they did move the bags as they nicked them to take the other stuff away. They made a bloody mess of the floor boards, snapping a board, to get the safe out.....Christ knows what they used as a lever....but on the bright side....there was no cash in it (id done my banking a few days earlier) just 'a pain in arse to get replaced' paperwork, plus about a couple of hundred quids worth of geocaching coins, that I'd collected over some years, which no doubt they threw away 

A question the police asked me about the safe....."Do you think they could open it" 
Now....if that isn't a dumb question....I don't know what is 
Imagine a safe with plenty of time to open it.....with the right power tools....I think anyone could!

Most of the weight in a safe is concrete. The case is just thickish sheet metal. Small household safes are meant to stop a thief casually slipping your watch collection(or whatever) into his pocket as he swigs your favourite tipple.

Like you, I've met people. And they're hard to like.

The problem with a locked safe is that it is reasonable to assume that there is always something of value inside it. It therefore becomes a focal point.
