Light fingered *self censored*

[ursidae]

Forgive me a moment, while I just sit back and gasp at the sheer brazenfaced cheek demonstrated by 2 young men yesterday.

Liv was at work and had left her bag in the staff area on a seperate floor when 2 men entered.

1 of them proceeded to distract Liv and her manager while the other entered the staff only area and proceeded to rifle through their bags for anything they could grab.

Liv is now minus her mobile, CD player (including cruxshadows CD) and wallet. Fortunately Liv and her manager realised what had happened quickly (about 15 minutes later) so Liv was able to stop her cards and such but it's still so frustrating.

To cap it all though, when phoned through to Steelhouse Lane, as the shop is right next to Oasis the police said they would need to take statements from everyone (fair comment) when do you open tomorrow???

At that point words escape me.

Just goes to show that nowhere is safe these days. I'm as guilty as anyone of trusting work colleagues, etc. but past experience where others have had stuff stolen whilst at work should have me more on guard.

I hope Liv hexes their pants off!

All my stuff carries a standard hex, mess with it at your peril!! In truth, it has a ignore spell on it, so often my things are just not seen by people that are bent on stealing.

The main thing is nobody was hurt. I have heard of cases where people have confronted thieves in these situations and it has turned nasty. Property can be replaced but you can't.
In the bigger scheme of things, they are only hurting themselves. However, I am intrigued to know what happens if anyone messes with Gwenifer's stuff!

It has yet to happen but think along the lines of the betrayer in 'Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix'..........
