On Being a Criminal

[tamaranth]

Will someone explain to me why I can't get a duplicate key for my own front door?

(The Designated Locksmith for my Chubb Super Lock say I should have an ID card -- never provided by previous owners of flat. And anyway, they say, this is an old-fashioned lock and we don't have the blanks. So even if we were prepared to contravene regulations and cut you a key, we couldn't. Bye.)

Get the type of lock that uses mag stripe cards and do them out of a job.

whatever I do, I have about 24 hours to do it in. So this probably isn't an option. Besides which, don't those cost about £500?

They must have seen that icon of you in your skull & crossbones shirt. Arr, matey.

Are you having a leaving party? Or do I have to zoom out on the motorbike to the new place to visit you?

Might be at a barbie in Brockley. It depends upon whether I get back from delivering a Vulcan bomber engine (long story, I was drunk, now I own part of an A-bomber).

You could walk there. Only problem is, it's full of sick pervs.

Just your sort of people!

I could walk there, if it wasn't my going-away party ...

You could drop by here! It's practically on your way!
