Considerate car thieves?

In the borders of scotland, a quiet rural community, a spate of car thefts have taken place. Why write about this? Well the theives break-in, take keys, drive away, come back, break in again, replace keys and leave the car outside house before anyones noticed! Full story here.

Sounds to me like "Yoofs" who can't afford insurance, want to kill the boredem, and fancy a wee joy ride!

Part of me is concerned by the breaking in and stealing but you have to admit there is a bit of "style" about returning the property before the theft has been noticed. Reminds you of those ealing studio black and white films where the bad guys are viewed as the "loveable rogues". Ah - thieving the "old way"
