pin Posted June 21, 2007 Report Share Posted June 21, 2007 Knock on the door, coppers wanting to know where my mrs car is parked. 19 weeks preggers and bad back she's let it at work the other day and come home in a taxi. Long story short it's not there, it's at a tube station in north London with a smashed quaterlight, ignition and etc.. I've been on the sauce so I can't pick it up, she's laid out. They offered to bring it back to us, by driving it here! I am speechless, amazing service, I would have got it tomorrow when I wasn't ****** but they reckon it won't be there (I trust them).

LEFTY478 Posted June 21, 2007 Report Share Posted June 21, 2007 Nice to hear, as the don't much get much good press. They often get grief and it's not all deserved, they ain't perfect but, I wouldn't want to be without 'em though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pin Posted June 21, 2007 Author Report Share Posted June 21, 2007 Well they came back, with the car and it aint all that bad. Loads of advice from them, one of them brought the stereo front out of the glovebox (Grr mrs!) and gave me a lecture about not leaving that there Mind, he's just done me a massive favour so taken on the nose Will call up their inspector tomorrow and make it known how good they were Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In your case they've saved having to look for the car again once it was moved on and actually cleared up a crime straight away. I've been dealing with the local planning and listed buildings dept recently and I've never met a worse more inefficient department in all my life. Really bugs me that we pay for it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tuck1 Posted June 22, 2007 Report Share Posted June 22, 2007 ^ Not only that, they have saved you a £100 ish bill for having the car safely impounded. Speak to the inspector if you can, my mate tells me that comments are noted and appreciated. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dunkield Posted June 22, 2007 Report Share Posted June 22, 2007 Good to hear. They have been doing sterling work on the M4 in Wiltshire as well by all accounts Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pin Posted June 22, 2007 Author Report Share Posted June 22, 2007 I wrote the letter this morning, I didn't mention the specifics in case I do get them a ####ing for what they did, but they should both get a pat on the back for it! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tulkyuk Posted June 22, 2007 Report Share Posted June 22, 2007 I've been dealing with the local planning and listed buildings dept recently and I've never met a worse more inefficient department in all my life. Really bugs me that we pay for it Now they are a funny lot to deal with, i deal with the planning people almost every day and to say they are pain in the **** is an uderstatement. Nice to hear Plod do a good job in the community for a change anyhow. Paul Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
