Had a front window broken by random scrotes 5 years ago. Plod said they couldn't do anything but did get a phone call from a victim support bint about two weeks later asking if I was coping mentally.

Couldn't fucking make it up.

Back in the 1990s some shitheads nicked my knackered old VW Golf. On the morning that I realised it had been nicked i vividly recall my short stroll to the space where I had parked only to discover that it weren’t fucking there. I was distraught and my mind was racing.

“What the fuck”
“I am now fucking marooned and I will be late for work”
“Public transport can jog on”
“ I hope that I didn’t leave the Debbie Does Dallas porno video in the boot”
“ the thieving insurance scum will not react quickly enough or pay for a like-for-like replacement”
“Thank fuck I can call the police”

At this point I consoled myself with the misplaced belief that the old bill will be straight on my case - ‘Columbo’ renowned for solving murder cases , would be commissioned by the old bill to book the first available Transatlantic flight to London. The Flying Squad ,who chased armed robbers , would be reactivated to get the fuck heads that nicked my car”. There would be an all points bulletin across the country to recover my car and give the cunts that nicked it a fuckng good beating.

Here’s how the 999 call went:-

Operator : “ which emergency service do you require?
Me: “police, my car has just been nicked”
Operator:……..long pause (I sensed that at this point she was tolerating me) “ please give me the details of the car and I will forward them on to the appropriate police section”
Me: “1970s golf with a destinctive rust patch on the near side wing”
Operator” I am transferring you to the team that can give you a Crime Reference Number for insurance purposes”
Me”what the f………..” I was then cut off.

Anyway, the insurance company predictably haggled between £300 to £400 value and we settled on £350. Proper job methinks and I eventually buy an equally shit car.

At this point I am as proud as punch because in my little world I believed that I had virtually set a new precedent for negotiation of a fair and reasonable insurance financial settlement. Like a Rotwieller on acid I could push for a class action against the insurance big hitters for retrospective claims for previous unlawful settlements?

What a fucking naive prick. My subsequent insurance renewal confirmed a 30% hike in premiums due to the loss of my no claims bonus.

Currently, I am still getting squarely fucked in the areshole by my insurers.

The landlady's put some of them back on display but with a warning sign in the window. Braverman's also told Essex plod to stop wasting time and catch real criminals.

Cue an armed response unit in there today.

Real criminals are dangerous and might use scary words.
