Ramraid: Witness appeal POLICE today appealed for witnesses after armed ramraiders threatened security staff and a member of the public and drove a car through the window of a Barnsley town centre building society. A green Vauxhall Vectra estate was reversed through the window of the Nationwide on Eldon Street and two masked offenders, one apparently armed with a hammer, leapt out and threatened Securicor staff. One threatened a bystander with what is believed to have been a handgun before they climbed into a waiting blue Ford Focus getaway car and sped off towards Pitt Street. They escaped empty handed after security staff managed to raise the alarm. The dramatic incident happened at 7.20am yesterday. The blue Focus, registration KG06 WJC, was found abandoned in the Leopold Street area of Barnsley late last night.

It was me and Rosco who have given up murdering for the time being.</p> Ram raiding is the new prada of crime.</p>
Oh, you didn't inform me I thought we woz still doing the murdering, when you told me to reverse at speed I was was aiming for that old biddy in front of the Building Society. I wondered why you put those tights over your head. I just followed you with that claw hammer to finish off any on-lookers, then the next thing I know you're rushing back into the car with this bag in your arms before I even have chance to crack a few skulls open. Did we make any money?
"One threatened a bystander with what is believed to have been a handgun" It's not a good idea threatening a bystander if they have a handgun! Believed to have a handgun? It might have been a banana though!
Actually, I thought identity theft was the Prada of crime... Or does that not satisfy your lust for violence or driving agressively around in vans? ff
Well.. It was a handcannon - a harquebuus - original 16th century, of Dutch design by the famous Van Commpe works of Heeringen. So, it's not suprising if they didn't recognise it, especially as Nutty Nutkins was about to smash it in their face. He's a one that Nutkins, but he knows his early fireams.
What I don't understand is... How can they steal my identity, do they leave me without my own identity. I reckon, its more like identity counterfeiting. And that east African language with all the clicks in it, whats that all about.
My favourite gun of choice is the old broomhandled mouser of Phoenix nights fame. I've added my own bayonet which is a bit daft taking into account its a hand gun but I like to murder at close quarters.</p> Rosco is more into torture than I am.</p>
You make some valid points... Maybe the clicking language has something to do with training a dog and ordering a Big Mac at the same time - multi-tasking, like...
I think you'll find... That was Harrison Ford, not Peter Kay, but I can see where you are coming from.
Point still remains... Han Solo carried a broomhandle Mauser... Furthermore, just to be pedantic, you could actually get the Mauser with an extended barrel and an attachable rifle stock so maybe the bayonet wasn't as unrealistic as first thought... I'm a wizard with the laydeez y'know? With trivia like that I never fail...
Genetics? Something to do with a stork, a chimney and a girl's belly-button? At least that's how it was explained to me...
RE: Point still remains... Almost, to the point of being exactly, but I think you'll find that Han Solo's weapon has a laser muffler, optical blast enhancer and an ammunition clip containing 12 AA batteries. Blaster Mauser
Yes Rosco you beat me to it... It wasn't classed as a mauser in the film. Hans carried a blaster although yes it was a Mauser C96.
Furthermore, I think the Millenium Falcon... ...was a modified 1974 Ford Capri or summat. So I'm told...
