Recovery Description

Found it locked to a drainpipe outside the local Wetherspoons. Fetched and added several locks of my own and phoned the police who told me to retrieve it and take it home. Left my GF on guard and went home for a a hacksaw only for the 'perp' to turn up in my absence. After a short discussion with my GF and a group of friendly sympathetic locals (but not at all to him!) who had been sitting outside watching the proceedings he removed the lock and went on his way - Result!! Chuffed to bits! :o)
