Burnt out car
« on: July 31, 2006, 01:19:54 pm »

This morning about 4.30am I woke up, and saw a car on fire just over
the road. It was underneath an underpass on the road and somehow
someone pushed it away from it and into an open area (otherwise it
would have set fire to some trees). The fire brigade came in the end.
The strangest thing is that a car was set on fire in the same spot only
on Saturday morning! AND, get this, a car was also burnt out last week
around the same time.



I'm glad I don't have a car!

I reject your reality and substitute my own.

we had a car set on fire outside our house a few years ago, it was nearly 4am on a dark november night and so the fire lit the entire road up, when the fire brigade arrived they insisted on putting high powered lights on before turning the hoses on, how the hell they could of missed the blazing heap in the dark is still a mystery to me

I doubt it wjp, unless someone has three cars. Would look a bit suspicious.

I cannot give full information about this, but bear with me.


I spent some time with a child a few weeks ago, who i know very well, they are very honest and very innocent ( much to their detriment in many ways)


Anyway, he advised me that his grandpa had his truck stolen, I dislike his grandpa instensly but just said ooh that is a shame. The next comment was, well grandpa's truck isn't really stolen, he hid it in the field and told them it was stolen so he could have some money for a new truck.


Laugh, I nearly cried.

Or could it be they were old cars and they did not want to pay to scrap them. I remember the days when you drove your banger to the scrap yard and they gave you £50. Now they want £200 from you to scrap it.
