Alex@rtnVFRmedia Suffolk UKAlthough #SouthMimms service station was near empty on Christmas Day, I arrived at #Caversham only to find some blighter had nicked one of my fox head centre caps from the rear left #alloy #wheel - I had parked in a quieter corner near the back to avoid other cars being too close, maybe next time I should park nearer the EV chargers as there's more foot traffic there which might deter such things.
You would have to have been carrying a 4mm hex key *and* own the same set of alloys to even want this - its the kind of petty #crime that would have happened back in the 1990s (probably from someone coming back from a rave who had overdone the drugs)
At least they didn't nick the red anodised alloy bolt I ordered from up North (but I have spares of those anyway)
On the way back from #Caversham I parked briefly at #ClayfieldCopse ( on the border of #Reading and #SouthOxfordshire ) for old times sake as it was one of our hangout spaces in the 1990s (although on Saturday afternoon it was just full of middle aged people walking dogs)
This Christmas Day Four Bears #bookshop In #Caversham #Berkshire is offering mince pies to those who drop in.
