    My son parks his works van in his driveway, and backs it up to a wall so that the back doors can’t be opened and his tools stolen. Has worked well for several years.
    He got up this morning and some bastard has stolen his van, complete with tools inside. :emoticon-0121-angry Three days before he’s due to fly to Majorca too.
    He lives in a cul de sac, at the end that can’t be seen from other roads, so probably not a spontaneous theft by someone walking/driving by.
    He had a spare key cut, by a mobile key cutter that came to his house, 6 weeks ago.
    Possibly a coincidence but passed on to the police officer who actually came to his home to get a statement.
    There are some ****ty people in this world.

    Maybe he's planning on doing a runner from court this time.

    Who knows, doesn’t seem particularly smart or well organised. How long was his sentence in the first place?

    Maybe he "Just walked through an open door, and suddenly found himself outside the prison". You know, the kind of honest mistake any imprisoned person can make. I expect he was cycling to a police station to give himself up when he was recaptured.

    I also believe that Saints will win a game before the end of the season, so I probably am deluded

    Maybe he was trying to rescue some lost kittens, or a baby trapped under the truck, and he was accidently carried out of the prison gates against his will. I expect that's what happened
