    Hope they are caught
    just a side note – when appealing for witnesses lately, there is no description of the men. Are they heavily under/overweight, height, what type of clothes they were wearing etc. I think it may help people instead of just asking for witnesses.

    note: the masks are a massive giveaway – but presume they put them on before the burglary – so description may help before and after

    If I were a policeman, how seriously would I investigate this incident, knowing what is likely to happen to the thugs if the case goes before the wigs? Could some people say that I am being negative or not conscientious? I don’t think so because, based on the majority of such cases in newspaper reports, I am being realistic.
