I was involved in an armed robbery last night. I was supervising last night and two blokes armed with a two foot long crowbar and a large back hammer came in, smashed up some tills and demanded cash from the tills.

Luckily, everyone on was ok. My main concern were the other members of staff. There were only three of us. There was Louise, who's just touch younger than me and Mary, who's 55. They were both very shook up. The police said I was a bit of a hero, that I was calm and I did everything by the book.

I'm still a bit pissed off about it all and that. But what an eventful night last night was!

Poor thing.

I'm glad everyone is okay though. Where do you work?

My mom was robbed at gunpoint TWICE when she worked at a bank a few years back. Scary stuff. Glad you're okay.

He works at Co-Op, Les. And them places are notorious for armed robberies, like Spa or Bargain Booze. But conveniant stores normally are.

I hope you're okay Matt.

Robberies aren't rare where Matt and I come from.

Also I now live in Stoke-On-Trent which is worse than Stockport or Bradford. Mind you I live in the middle of no where (border on Staffordshire to Cheshire), where the crime rate is lower than towards the city centre.

God damn, aos, you're sounding like a crackhead

I work for my money!

Haha, but yeah, I'm fine. Don't fancy working tonight, but it'll be right.

Anyone heard off James and Marna?

Lol I think kaos was trying to light up the moment.

And ForgetfulDan put a pic of the newlyweds on the "Mr and Mrs Chewi" topic.

Also, ya brave Matt, am sure you'll be alright. At least I hope so.

Nah. I was really let down that he didnt pull off a some classic bank job.
thread title is misleading, in my opinion.

was crackhead the word of the day on Sesame Street or something Matt?
pay more attention to Elmo.. cause you're using it wrong.

Squirrel · Post by **Squirrel** » Mon May 26, 2008 8:30 pm

O_o You worry me sometimes.

Title's not misleading to me. And by the way, Elmo takes speed and ectasy. He tells me these things. I mean come on how the hell can he always giggle and shake so oddly every time he is squished.
