What a fantastic advert for Hilti.

They are lucky the wall was 500mm thick as the drill had a max cutting depth of 500mm.  Using its stitch coring for installing cable trays.

What a well planned job,

-Core drilling knowledge

-knowing the depth of the vault

-Lift knowledge

Must have been an electrician.  Who's been missing from the forum for a few weeks now........ :run

i am a bit lost, blame the Merlot and Southern Comfort.  What was the purpose of the hole....did they crawl through it?  just looks a bit small

i think a 12inch hole cutter was used (report said opening was 25cm X 45cm)

I assume they used the hole to get in.  No big belly would fit through that hole, send the youngest one in.

Apparently this was one of the ways the loot was taken away :innocent

Steps has a white Van...

Just saying

They must have done an "Oliver Twist"   .........only a small grown up or a  lad could get through that hole  ..I couldn't  .  

I could probably fit through that hole :lol: but now I'm back at work and able to eat what I want, in a few weeks I won't be able to fit through the front door :slap

I had a Hilti cordless drill once. Brilliant thing, must be 15+ years ago but it got nicked. I remember the rep coming in before we got them and showing one of it's main selling points being that it would stand upright on it's battery pack as it was "so well balanced".  :lol:

I was so impressed I bought the 4 1/2" grinder...............and that was c@rp! Killed it chasing some yellow stocks.

Garages on the way home were always my problem.......Meal Deals, Ginsters etc, etc. Figured we we're buying so many cans of Coke from small shops we'd save by buying a crate each (one diet variety and one fat) from Costco . Stuck in traffic and we were chain drinking them. Couldn't sleep for a few nights!

I buy "crates" of Pepsi from Farm Foods, cheaper than any of the wholesalers, but not cans, I buy the 500ml bottles so I don't have to finish one, always have a few on the van.

However, I've still been weak and done some meal deals recently, put on quite a bit of weight too, need to lay off them & the beer I think!

We bought a crate of cans of Pepsi Max from Asda yesterday... 30 cans for < £7

One advantage of running a B&B is a Bookers wholesale card, great for stocking up on drinks and beer cheaper then the supermarkets.

I save lots of money by not buying cans of coke as its chuffin expensive and rots ya teef init.

Good day: tesco meal deal: chicken bacon salad vegetable chrisps and a copella juice.(yes, I realise this is probably as bad as a donner kebab but out on the road its the best I can do under a fiver).

Bad day: Gregg's: sausage roll, apple Danish, ham n cheese baguette and a lucazade.

Really bad day: Donner meat and chips with a can of coke!

I didn't say that I drink it.... 9x out of 10 it's tap water for me

I cut out most of the rubbish in my diet 12 months ago....

No way PD Bookers are WAY more expensive than Farm Foods for 24 bottles of Pepsi 500ml size, shelf edge price.

I forgot: actually the best meal for a fiver or less is a mess breakfast. Opposite Hackney central station I have not found better yet!
