"Wasn’t this an Only Fools And Horses storyline? " No. A family arrived at their home in Sussex after driving from France. They discovered a man had climbed into their roofbox when they stopped at a supermarket. They called the police who were very helpful. Months later they've received a £200 fine from the borders agency. | |||

"They only scan trucks I believe and with vans or Mimi buses they just take a peek and check passports of occupants" When we went to France cars were driving through the scanning booths. I don't know if they are x-ray only or heat scanners too. I can't think of the right name for them at the moment. | |||

Makes sense now. I apologise, but I have a vision in my head of a house somehow bobbing through customs with a box on the roof, containing an immigrant.

"The family say their dumped clothes and toiletries were worth "thousands of pounds"." I'm sure the video camera, 4 ipads, phones, jewellery and Ralph Lauren dresses all round were also in there. But yeah I'd be really pissed off that someone dropped my stuff and lost it for me. If someone who wasn't a migrant did that at your local supermarket you'd call plod and wait for them to spring into action.... OK.. Wait for their civilian support staff to issue you a crime ref number and then send an email saying they've explored all leads and that there is nothing more they can do and the case is now closed. | |||

"Why didn't any shoppers in the Calais supermarket carpark notice a Sudanese man emptying thousands of pounds worth of possessions from a roof box, hiding them where the family wouldn't notice them and then climb into it ?" Why wasn't it locked to secure the thousands of pounds worth of possessions? | |||

"Why didn't any shoppers in the Calais supermarket carpark notice a Sudanese man emptying thousands of pounds worth of possessions from a roof box, hiding them where the family wouldn't notice them and then climb into it ?" They generally pick the cars parked near the hedges and once they have opened or broken into your roofbox then an accomplice secures it and hides the discarded contents. I heard a story where a migrant wrapped himself in aluminium foil to try and avoid the heat scanners at Calais. He actually got through with this tactic.. The family were returning home to a 21st Birthday Fancy Dress party and they were furious. The fancy dress outfits had been bought in France and they had been stored in the roofbox and discarded by the gang.. They had nothing to wear to the party but there was one unexpected outcome. The migrant won 1st prize at the Fancy Dress. The judges thought he was the tin man from the Wizard of Oz | |||

"What makes this story is the fact that the migrants have to empty much of the family's possessions to fit in the box. So here is the dilemma. How do you treat a person who has dumped your possessions somewhere in France.." Bring him back | |||
