Letters to the newspapers... - ian (cape town)
From Today's Cape Times:
I would like to thank the gentlemen who left a quality jack under my car after unsuccesfully attempting to remove my tyres. Thanks very much for the gift, and have a merry christmas.

Re: Letters to the newspapers... - Anthony Farrar
I was left a cheap jack once when a toady nicked two alloy wheels from my (company) XR2 parked outside my house. After replacing the wheels and adding security bolts, I waited (with a hammer), for quite a few nights for him to return for the full set - he never did.

Anthony. at least you got a tatty jack. all i got left after some scrote stole the heated backlight from my 65 2.1/2L V8 Daimler Saloon were the rubber seals and chrome trim which were left neatly placed on the rear seat. car was on my drive. I was asleep in bed.
