A burglar leaped out of a first floor window after being disturbed by Thor. well maybe not Thor but Torvald Alexander was still wearing a red cape and the thunder god's silver-winged helmet and breastplate after a New Year's Eve fancy dress party when he discovered the man inhis home in Inverleith, Edinburgh.Alexander frightened the intruder by charging at him. "He looked like he had had a few drinks and decided to do a late-night break-in, but he hadn't counted on the God of Thunder living here... I ran at him and he just jumped straight out of the window. I think I would be quite scared if someone looking almost like a gladiator ran at them.
Nothing was stolen but the intruder left behind his shoes and the garden fork he used to break in. A pitched roof outside the window broke his fall and he made his escape.
Somehow I don't think the burglar will be boasting about that job!

Good on you, Jams. That's what we need - a bit of real news like that. :)
Haha Kay, James.. it's the sort of thing that does amuse!
LOL, maybe that will be his last job!
I would think wice if I were him!
What a hoot. I love this story.
It's wonderful eh?
How does a burgular leave behind his shoes? That is too funny. I can't imagine what prompted him to take his shoes off in the first place, maybe too polite to stain the rug?
On the otehr hand the sight of Thor running at you may casue another stain on that rug!
Tee hee. Brilliant. I wonder what on earth went through the burglar's mind.
A lot cleanerthan what probably went through his trousers I'll bet!
I bet Mr. Methane scares intruders off ALL the time.
I'd pay to see a Mr. Methane vs. Thor death match.
No contest EWBL.. Mr Methane, hands down!
This is Tor typing.
Too cold for burglaring or Thunder this evening.
I have my Hammer and two strong cats from the Manx breed.
So, potensial intruders, you are hereby Warned.
Great story
Haha Tor, may you not have to smite any burglars tonight!
