TSS Posted November 8, 2013 #3 Share Posted November 8, 2013 I remember the good 'ol days when you'd wake up in the morning and find your house had been cleared out, and you hadn't heard a sound....now they invade your chimney and kindly wait about dangling in your chimney so you can have a cuppa and read the paper before calling the police........what's the world coming too.... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Full story & pics & video: http://www.dailystar...-worst-burglars Must be scary, finding someone in your chimney that isn't Santa. loved the vid on that page, made me wonder that if they started a little fire under his feet - he may have found the will and strength to climb out by himself.... Ive read similar stories like this before... and while Id love a real fire - Im burglar proof - with gas central heating... (from a chimney anyway) Sort of related, this guy thinks theres a fire, so runs up to the roof, somehow falls off, and gets wedged between 2 buildings.... "Student, 19, rescued two days after he fell TEN stories and became stuck between buildings - until security guard spotted his phone" http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-2486956/NYU-student-Asher-Vongtau-trapped-buildings-days-survived.html 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Frank Merton Posted November 8, 2013 #5 Share Posted November 8, 2013 Burglary is on of those careers, like modeling, where one must watch one's weight. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Leonardo Posted November 8, 2013 #7 Share Posted November 8, 2013 Meh, just hand him down a brush and tell him to start sweeping - as long as he's in there he might as well make himself useful. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Still Waters Posted November 9, 2013 #8 Share Posted November 9, 2013 I wonder if he has tickly feet. They should have tried it, it might have driven him nuts. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
