Hi all

I've been lurking here a while and have finally gotten around to joining. Locks are just a hobby, but I thought this article was best posted as a heads-up to any professionals in South London:

Utter tosh. File this with stories about gangs driving round with no headlights and shooting the first motorist to flash them. I've attached hundreds of those stickers when business is slow, and see dozens of them every day. I pity the innocent lockie or flyer poster who gets a beating for doing this now this nonsense is being circulated by who should know better! (by that I mean the police, not mac!)
