Along_the_Wire I used to get all the bits and bobs for mates for years
I used to do the same back in the early 90’s. Then one day I just scored hash then my friend said do you fancy coming with me to pick up a set of decks & a mixer from a house. Unbeknown to me they were bought with a stolen credit card. As we pulled up to the house I stuffed the hash down my pants. When my mate got out the van all of a sudden we were surrounded by police. We Both got nicked - taken to the police station in separate cars. I was shitting it as I had half ounce down my pants. They frisked me but didn’t find the gear. Once in my cell I managed to break the gear up into little pieces and push it down the back of bed. In the meantime the police had got a warrant and went round my parents house and searched my bedroom looking for stolen credit cards.
The next morning were taken up to a North London police station as that was were the crime had taken place. I got let off as being in the wrong place at the wrong time but my mate got a fine plus a criminal record. When I got home my parents went fucking mental. It was scary.
