Van stolen after 19 years . . .


















The van has gone. Someone drove it away while I was away for a few days. No-one saw anything. No-one heard anything. All my neighbours are amazed that anyone would want a small red van which was so old. But, it's gone.
I've got a crime report number, the insurance company isn't interested (the claim would be for less than the excess on my third-party policy) and the police will only recover my van if I agree to pay £ 105 plus storage. [ see http://www.timesonline.co.uk/tol/news/uk/crime/article1654994.ece ]
We were actually saving up for a replacement, but we're both back on the bicycles again . . . good for the old waistline . . .
