    Hi all
    my mother was shopping in lidl last wek when a foriegn national asked her if she had change for a trolley ,my mum took out her purse and the b***h grabbed her purse and ran off and i know of another person who was in superquinn and unloaded her shopping and went to return her trolley ,she thought she pressed the remote control to lock the car but it seems for some reason car didn't lock and when she returned her handbag and other bags in the front seat were gone, two youths were seen hanging around the carpark earlier and hopefully garda will be able to identify them from cctv.
    take extra care all of you and don't let scum like this ruin your christmas.;););)

    Extra handy hint: Don't leave your car unlocked and don't give money to strangers.

    Thieves seem to be in operation in the loughboy/Larchfield area also.
    Heard of someone getting bag nicked recently from car as they were unloading their shopping and kids.

    Youths up to no good probably.
    There seem to be loads of them around playing football against cars and throwing stones at each other near where I live.

    Where the feck are their parents. Saying that though I saw one of the local shisters playing tennis in the street with his mother thudding the ball and racket off any car that happened to be in the way.

    When do schools go back ? Notfeckinsoonenoughforme.

    Take it easy please. There are plenty of Irish youths who would rob you blind. Its not like we are all saints now is it. Lets not blame anybody in particular as the cause of crime and keep the anger under control.

    Cheers.

    In other earth shattering news, non-Romas regularly appear in court in their thousands charged with all manner of offences, including murder. Yes, even the white ones with flash suits, mortgages and two cars in the garage.

    I don't think it's ever any harm to warn people to be on their guard, regardless of the age and ethnicity of the alleged perpetrators.

    Elderly local chap was out walking about two weeks ago coming back from post office and a women pulled up beside him in a car asking could she use his phone, he said he couldn't leave anyone into his house and she was doing alot of messing about trying to confuse him.,

    Anyway she left and he continued on his way home way to unlock his frontdoor and found his wallet was gone and along with it his double pension for the christmas period.,.....pure scumbags out there!
