Some guys broke into the flat last night, thanks to the new security gate they only got away with two light items, a flat screen (good choice) and a Playstation 2 (thanks for getting rid of that). They left through a window.

Epilogue: new window locks, new HP screen, new towel from Selfridge’s, new PSP (which has come in useful), new Grade II listed property in Leicester in November 2007. Cheers guys!

It’s a strange fact that it takes around an hour on the tube to get from one place to another in London, and the same time to bake a potato.

PS: Barking Police rang the day after I used the Met Police minor crime reporting online, impressive, for the loss of my bike saddle. Oh well, I silently cursed Barking for the theft – and I see they’ve sold West Ham to some Icelanders!
