B*stards! You might not feel like it but I suppose you were very lucky to come back and find the car there at all. Probably a warning to us all to be more vigilant. One of teh moast reassuring I've heard of was some family friends had concreted a ring into the garage floor and looped a maheesive chain through it and around something sturdy on the car. I realise one can be a bit more subtle than that, but at least cutting trough a fat chain makes a hell of a racket. What times we live in. And as you say, no doubt, all as a result of the recent press coverage.
