Shocked how the guards didn't care about stolen wallet?

    The country is like Mad Max.

    What you need to is posse up (join a street gang) and start carrying concealed weapons on you at all times. The next time someone steals your wallet BAM. Game over.

    About 25 years ago, my cousin had a 2L Fiat Mirofiori robbed in Dublin. It was in awful condition - misfiring and leaking oil.
    He reported it to the guards and a few days later got a call from a guard who told him that they knew where the car was. It was in a garage owned by a member of a gang who were prolific post office robbers at the time. The guards reckoned it was going to be used in a robbery and asked him for a few more days, as they had the gang under observation and wanted to catch them in the robbery.
    As the car was a heap of crap, he agreed, but a week went by without him hearing anything back, so he rang the guard who was off duty. The guard eventually rang him back after another 5 days, and this time told him that they had lost track of the car. It was no longer in the garage and must have been moved during a shift change.
    He got another call 10 days later to say that they had found the car. It had been used in a robbery of a supermarket and was found abandoned in Finglas, and unusually, wasn't burnt out.
    When he finally got the car back, it had a different re-conditioned engine in it, and worked perfectly. He got another 4 years out of it and was delighted.
