Ha ha! We once looked at renting a business premises
that had been a Bank for many years. It had a huge
impressive steel strongroom door with enormous lock,
looked great to the customers. It was like a small
room, but the entire strongroom was just double brick
wall and the wall to the next shop was the same double
brick wall!! Maybe 2 minutes for any meathead with a
sledgehammer. Was most amusing. The door must have been
worth a lot of money though. :o)
