If a couple blokes come steaming through your front room at a minimum your gonna need a blade whether your 5 foot 5 or 6 foot 4, as they will very likely be carrying one themselves
I agree.. It's easy to be 'Barry Big Bollocks' when commenting on something as horrific as this, but when it's you sat there watching the evening news with your 2 year old sat on your lap and 2 scumbags burst in tooled-up demanding your car keys, you're going to do what exactly?!?! Risk your kids life for a bit of metal that is fully insured, or chuck them the keys are and tell them to f*ck off out your house...
Don't get me wrong guys, if some grotter came up to me in the street and asked for my keys they would have to broken nose at the very least. I have also taken my car keys to bed with me every night for the last 10 years (even though the car is garaged out of sight every night). But I have no kids and circumstances need to be taken into account when not knowing the full details..
At least the guy had CCTV (that is actually clear for once), so there is a good chance they may get hold of the cnuts.. The car however I fear will be long gone..
