Sorry, too late, I'm back.
In your 1 hour, read every post thing, did you notice I'd called the burglar and those of his family who do similar things predators half a dozen times, ditto disgusting and despicable? Did you notice my post about agreeing with a lot that the IWCA have done? Did you read what I said about the old bloke and his wife and how they must be feeling?
On the flowers thing, did you read my initial take on it that it did look like an aggressive act - subsequently modified (in light of it being carried out in a relatively diplomatic way) to that they do have the right to leave stuff, but that the oap will feel vulnerable and stressed. Did you see my suggestion that the OB or council might try and get agreement to place it somewhere else or limit it to 24 hours? Does that add up to me saying anything like what you suggest?
As well as cunting off the mail on this and their breathless, cynical reporting, numerous posts by me add up to one thing: the burglar was a vile predator. But you can say that without giving it the fucking full Littlejohn in terms of taking benefits off people, ugg boots and wishing his family die of an OD.
