This is a gem. Last night's BBC Watchdog exposed the rogue trader in our midst - Mike the mobile mechanic who is the guy with the sinister weird-looking black van you'll have seen driving round the area, which used to be parked in Lorne Road. The BBC fixed up a car with a couple of minor faults and used secret filming - let's just say that the repairs were not as stated.

"I wouldn't go too close, he has two very fierce-looking dogs (called Coke and Charlie) and a number of somewhat threatening friends on supercharged small motor bikes."
If you know about my dogs then you must of met me to get half of there names right ( There called JD and Coke btw ) and you must also know that I have a little yorkie to which is the worst out of all 3 of them, and for those who have even seen my dogs know they are very well trained and not in any way classed as dangerous... And to also imply that his friend are unsavoury when you dont even know them is very judgemental. Boxing someone in to how they might dress or look or to what there hobbies may be will also imply hwo narrow minded you are .. These people you class as unsavoury are family men.. Not that you need to know anything about there lives.
So although I can understand the extent of what Mike has done, and it was a shock to all of us to know what was happening, I do have to express anger at the above comments in stereo-typing in this manner.
