Look out, it seems that the exact thing that happened to my wife a few weeks ago in Sainsbury's, is happening elsewhere. My daughter just sent me these tweets from her local Police.

I have seen this reported on the web for the past 10 years+, it must be a common thing.
You'd think women would take better care of their handbags but I still see them leaving them in easy to nick places while they shop.
The same applies in the car park.

Never actually seen or heard of this in the actual car park though - only on the web.

I know it sounds like a case of a soppy woman not looking after her handbag but I can absolutely assure you my wife guards her handbag like a hawk - I get told to watch her handbag when there’s just me in the car, nobody else about and she gets out to just open a gate! She’s even warned pensioners before in the same supermarket when she’s seen their purse at the top of their bag, hanging on the trolley. She would be the last person I would expect to have her bag taken or something taken out of it. These thieves had it timed to split second perfection. She got in the car, put her handbag on the seat and before she could put her key in the ignition he tapped on the window. Had it been a second later, the ignition would have been on and she would have wound the electric window down and not got out of the car. When I asked her why she even got into a conversation with a stranger with a foreign accent that had tapped on the window she said he seemed really helpful and thought he was just passing by after buying his lunch as he was eating some pasta from a pasta salad - all part of the innocence rouse I suppose. Anyway, it won’t happen again - I’ve set her car up now with two-stage opening. One press of the key just opens the drivers door and a second press straight afterwards is needed to open the others. I could kick myself - had I had done that years ago, the ****s accomplice wouldn’t have been able to open the passenger door when she was distracted.

You don't have to explain your wife's actions... This just sums up the left and why this country is split..... Instead of excusing the criminal... just because he is not English they would rather blame the victim.
