ROLL OUT THE TUMBRIL - PART IV

We have found our car. It was stolen on February 26th.
Now it has no tires and no battery - but there is a hell of a story about how it was stolen and how the police handled the issue. How it has highlighted an issue about how government departments talk to each other, or don't, to reduce crime.

Now the car is about 17 years old but mechanically sound. It wasn't worth much more than about $1000 dollars - it wasn't even worth insuring. So some maybe wondering why we have gone to great lengths to secure its return.

Well it was ours. And its like this - We like to apply the granny test to things. That means if it was your granny that was facing the same incident how would the experience have been for her.

In this case Granny would have never seen her car again. And that says bad things about how this issue was handled. In the end it proved to be a case of " not what you know but who you know" and a little bit of amateur sleuthing.

We will blog on this in full later. It really has been an astonishing journey.
