davieG Posted 19 October 2016 Share Posted 19 October 2016 Quote Police have released pictures of a man they want to trace in connection with an alleged theft of a venetian blind from a shop. Police said a man allegedly concealed the blind down one trouser leg and up the back of his jacket before leaving the Dunelm Mill store in Nene Valley Retail Park, in Northampton. Northamptonshire Police said the man left the shop, which is part of a chain owned by the Leicestershire company, without paying. Staff followed him up a nearby canal path, where he dropped the blind before making off. The blind was damaged as a result. In a statement, the force said: "Officers would like to speak with the man pictured or anyone with information. Contact Northamptonshire Police on 101.

Babylon Posted 19 October 2016 Share Posted 19 October 2016 Unreal.... It's either Wes or Kanye... Wes has been playing like he's got a rod up his arse, so that figures. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GazzinderFox Posted 19 October 2016 Share Posted 19 October 2016 Top marks for ambition. I wouldn't have thought beyond sticking a couple of grand designs DVDs down my trousers. I'd like to think this was done as some kind of bet that involved having to steal something of greater length than six feet. We need more of this.

Wymsey Posted 19 October 2016 Share Posted 19 October 2016 Dunelm needs to improve it's theft measures and curtain out this type of situation. I know someone who works high up at the company and admits customer service/security could be better in places. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rocket-Ron Posted 20 October 2016 Share Posted 20 October 2016 A woman is just getting out of the shower when there’s a knock at the door. She doesn’t have a towel at hand so she shouts, “Who is it?” “It’s the blind man” Realising the towel no longer matters, she opens the door. The blind man says, “Nice tits, love. Where do you want the blinds?” Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alf Bentley Posted 20 October 2016 Share Posted 20 October 2016 If he'd walked in on stilts, pretending to be from a visiting circus, he could have tucked the blinds down his back and got away without drawing attention to himself. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nick Posted 20 October 2016 Share Posted 20 October 2016 I think I've seen him before in Northampton. I was out on the Welly Road a few months ago playing pool in a bar - he was looking in through a small window, watching with his face pressed up against the glass - I mentioned to my mates he looked like an image from the 'The Scream' painting with his hands pressed up around his face. He thought I was taking the **** so knocked on the window and informed me he was coming in to the pub to kick the **** out of me. Sure enough he came in and squared up to me. I told him he looked like the Edward Munch painting whilst at the window and he looked a bit confused and walked off. Full quite not ticket.
