Hi Nathan....there's 80 quid here if you want mate ;-) 

I didn't know this either, i was hesitating about this sale for just this reason.   Just drill out the lock, you can buy a new one for pennies.

Plenty of vids on youtube for this, some on filing cabinets, but same principle, basically aim through the keyhole.
