So yeah. I got mugged last night. I'm minus an ipod and a wallet, as well as a glasses lens. Was threatened with a knife so I figured losing my ipod and wallet was better than losing, say, a lung, heart, stomach etc.
All I'm saying is, be careful. It really can happen to any of us, and well, you don't think much of it until it actually happens to you. The proof is on the other side of your internet connection.
I'm ok, just a mite pissed off, a bit shaky, and actually, rather xenophobic.
Just be careful.

Kev! That's terrible! What a horrible thing to happen. Thank god you're not hurt, but the shock and unpleasantness of it is bad enough. Rotten that you lost your wallet and iPod - and glasses lens - but as you say refusing to hand them over could have had much nastier results. Just awful. Be safe.

Awwww, Kevio! *hugs* Sure, losing your iPod and wallet sucks, but you're much more valuable than material things that can be replaced - you did the right thing giving them up. Don't let the barstewards grind you down.

It makes me so angry, these bastards can't afford anything, so they take yours, Didn't another FFSer get mugged a couple of months ago. Anyway, hope you're ok Kev. You did the right thing, giving them what they wanted, It could have been much worse.

Sounds bad man. But as Clare said, they're material things that can be replaced.
Out of curiousity, where were you at the time? I'd like to know where to avoid...

It's a polite way of saying that I'm a mite more wary of foreigners. In this case, Somalians.
