The following tale is from an article that appeared in “The Dublin Times” about a day after an unusual bank robbery.
Four unemployed guys broke into a bank. Once inside, a little after midnight, they started work on disabling the bank’s security systems.
The robbers expected to find one or two large safes filled with cash & valuables. However, they were surprised to see many smaller safes throughout the banks vault.
Confused but determined to rob anyway, they cracked open the first safe's combination and to their disappointment only found a small glass bowl of vanilla pudding.
According to recordings from the bank's audio - video tapes, one robber said, “BUGGER! But at least we'll have a bite to eat.”
The robbers then opened up a second safe. It too contained nothing but vanilla pudding. The process continued until all the safes were opened.
They did not find a single pound note, diamonds, gold or even documents. All they found in the safes were little glass bowls of pudding.
Disappointed but still not wanting to admit total defeat, the robbers ate up all the pudding. They then made a quiet exit - each leaving with nothing more than a slightly uncomfortably but full stomach.
The day following the robbery a newspaper headline read:
