    Good luck with it Neil.

    It would have been nice if the police, or ideally the woman herself before the police arrived - had simply returned it to you.

    I reckon it'll be rusty and absolutely shagged out when Neil gets it back, Tone.

    I'm sure I am, Tone.

    When the police stored all my shotguns they returned them to me in the same condition as when they took them --- they'd even oiled them.

    Funny if they bring it to your door not in a secured gun slip!

    Best of luck!

    Well - as promised, plod turned up with my gun. He wandered up the drive with the gun in his hand not in a slip. Fair play.

    It is in reasonable condition - not what it would have been like if I had been keeping it but not bad.

    So a decent turn out!!

    Great result. I don't think there would be many who would look after a loaned item to the extent of the owner. I presume the police also removed the rope from the garage, medications, knives, tubing that fit over exhausts and so on......

    All the best....
