Even putting them in the boot is no good.. if you do it, make sure you put
it in the boot BEFORE you drive there.. as there are people who scope out
your car while you park it, if they see you putting stuff in your boot,
they will just break into that too.

It's happened to me in the QVB.. so much for secure parking..
