Major dramas

[Monty92]

Around 9.30 last night we hear a loud bang from our communal area. We go take a look and a fella in high vis is standing at our front door. We ask him what he wants and he starts blustering about a friend at number 6.

We ask him why he smacked the door so hard and he starts getting visibly agitated. We ask him to close the door and he doesn’t. Suddenly another fella wearing a crash helmet emerges from the BASEMENT in our communal area carrying one of them huge transit boxes with “guarded” written on the side and starts to walk out the front door.

At this point we realise something seriously ****ing weird is going on. We ask who the **** they are and the basement fella says “police”. Outside we notice a moped and TWO getaway cars, which quickly speed off with them all inside.

Anyway, police come round and as we’re recounting the incident they get a call through on their walkie talkies about a missing transit box full of money in the area, and helicopters flying overhead!

Basically, it seems these guys had cased our joint and identified our flats as a place to stash their booty. Not entirely sure why they wouldn’t have chosen a secluded garage or something, rather than private flats full of residents...

Mesut is gonna wanna leave when he hears about this :(

If he can put up with playing for Arsenal he can put up with anything.

Wouldn't you find it more convenient to live in a house?

Makes sense, hiding in full view. The only ones who'd discover the box would be people who'd shrug their shoulders and presume it was something to do with one of their neighbours and think nothing more of it. They probably wouldn't even touch it.

On the other hand, a secluded garage, lock-up or warehouse is always highly suspicious, just as a matter of course. This little enterprise was "discovered" a while back. It's just up the road from my in-laws' house in Germany. Hopefully, the police tidied up the case before going public with it; whoever was running this would've been for the high jump from bad hombres.

What if it was his money though?

[Monty92]

I dunno. There are always maintenance chaps going down there and they certainly wouldnt have ignored a huge reinforced box with “guarded” splashed on the side. There was also blue dye on the floor which presumably is released when you try to open these things.

Anyway, why after committing a serious robbery would you add an extra layer of risk by breaking into a private property full of residents? The dude at the door even had his face exposed.

It makes no sense...

Have you considered that as a witness, you are now a marked man?

THat is a pretty poxy set up, to be honest. The plants are too close together and the lighting isnt rigged properly. Uneven distribution.

****ing amateurs!

[Monty92]

I’m a Jew living on the borders of Islington. I’m already a marked man.

But yes, we have considered that, but you’d hope these chaps never want to see us again as much as we don’t want to see them.

Although killing us would be a neat way of solving that, I guess..

You might have to go to court and testify against them.

Their mates are going to drill your kneecaps.

Perhaps the assailants identified you as the type to take good care of their money.

We'll wait and see what happens, of course, but these people don't calculate according to risk (of getting caught), rather according to the reward for doing the job. The police will already know who they are; they'll be on file somewhere.

This is some outrageously cold racist shít right here.

Hold on, was it you and Mrs M who put the actual call through to the Police?

Chief witness.

:clap:

Young, edgy, professional, sculpted.

I don't know what you mean.

[Monty92]

There’s a fake camera above the front door which they took down and dumped by the bins

:nod: They're properly fvcked imo. It's little Anus I really feel sorry for. :-(

So that would leave you two as the sole witnesses, then?

Nothing to worry about, I'm sure. :-\

He's jewish. They're famously mean (and they control the banks and the media), but we don't mention any of that in polite society.

It's lucky m doesn't have any distinguishing features that would make him easily recognisab... oh. :-(

[Monty92]

They can do anything they like to my anus.

If they touch my daughter, however...

That'll look nice on your gravestone.

On the contrary, I understand it was a highly professional operation. 1000 sq/m of it in the middle of a mostly residential area. Carbon filters for the ventilation, irrigation built into the floor, vats of water with pumps. The building was also blacked out and there was apparatus and machinery so that all the drying, shredding and packing could be performed on-site. The temperature and lighting was fully-automated too so, unlike at your mum's, there was not too many comings and goings.

I am sure it had all of that. A fella with a grow room in his loft has all that. Still, their lighting and plant spacing is crap. Its going to produce an inferior and uneven yield. Typical commercial grower- no care for quality.

Ah, yes. I see what you mean. Blame Ronald McDonald.

Getting a man of his type to hand the money back might be a problem which the crooks never anticipated

I liked the guys that were caught in Manchester. Had filled their attic space with weed and all the lighting and then it snowed, the Police spotted that there was absolutely no snow on their roof and every other house was covered and so raided it. :hehe:

You see, if they grew in a tent that wouldnt happen..... or at least shouldn't happen
