Numberplate Stolen (while I was in car!) RANT

I popped to Subway earlier with my girlfriend to get something to eat. We bought our food, then headed to Stokes Bay to sit by the sea.

 

We'd been sitting there a few minutes with people walking by and looking at the car when some dodgy guy rode past on his bike then circled the car. He looked really rough like a pikey with stubble and crappy clothes.

 

We carried on eating and he headed back around a minute later. He pulled up near the back of the car and started doing something there. I thought he was picking up fag-buts that someone had emptied out their ashtray or something, so carried on eating.

 

The windows were a little steamed from the food anyway, so around 10 minutes later I got out the car to put the rubbish in the bin & my bloody rear numberplate was missing! It was only stuck on with double-sided pads & the skank nicked it!

 

I jumped straight in and steamed up the seafront asking people if they'd seen him, but it was getting dark & I could have gone straight past him for all I knew.

 

It doesn't really bother me, but the fact is there was at least one car (which was gone by the time I went back there) that had a full view of what he was doing and they did nothing. How weak is that? You'd think they'd at least beep their horn or something. Whats the world coming to?

 

There's been loads of thieving pikey scum, I mean travellers in the area, and I thought when he rode past he was one of them or a bum, I even went to the local caravan park (Kingfisher) but it was pitch black. I don't think they park there anyway. They prefer beauty spots that they can foul the most with their human waste and other garbage.

 

The more I think of it though, the more I think he was just a 'simple' guy who's probably got bored of it by now, or stuck it on his wall.

 

I've reported it to the Police in case it does get used on a pikey caravan, or robbery or whatever. No doubt, I'll have armed police storm the house in the next few days/week or whatever though.

 

That'll teach me for trying to enjoy my night! :swear:

Sorry to hear that, I'd go mental if anyone did it to me, proper mental :complain:

 

 

PMSL!!! :D

 

I did go mental, think I was slightly erratic driving up the seafront shouting questions at people out the window!

 

After 20 minutes of searching I headed straight down the police station, so it's all reported. Might spend tomorrow patrolling the beach looking for the scum.

 

If he was on a bike, he can't live too far away

Same thing happened to my bro's car (which is under my name) - reported it to the police and they logged it. 2 days later, armed coppers from Greater Manchester police turned up lookin for me!

 

Makes you wonder if the left hand communicates with the right.......

 

Then again I suppose you could always report your plate as stolen, then use the car for a robbery and use it as a defense!
