Dizzy Posted July 18, 2012 Report Share Posted July 18, 2012 And some of them were filmed and shown on tonight's news showing how they do it over there and how they will do it over here at the Olympics ... clever Wonder if they will be spotted and stopped at border controls when they depart/arrive !?!? If they get through after being openly filmed with clear mugshots and intent what chance is there of stopping others with a lower profile and more destructive and sinister reason for getting through Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Evil Sid Posted July 19, 2012 Report Share Posted July 19, 2012 Wonder if they have been practising in Warrington. http://www.warrington-worldwide.co.uk/articles/13612/1/Police-warn-over-purse-thefts/Page1.html :unsure: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dizzy Posted July 19, 2012 Report Share Posted July 19, 2012 Think I'll go and get a purse bell for my eldery neighbour (what is a purse bell by the way?). Hope they catch the buggers. There's loads of CCTV camera's in there so hopefully they will Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vogon64 Posted July 19, 2012 Report Share Posted July 19, 2012 I spent a weekend in Barcelona and had no problems... other than the fact that a "large" beer really is - it comes in 1 litre glasses ! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
