    Looks like the local Bobbies were busy elsewhere last night so the local scum bags took the oppertunity to do some thieving.
    Everything was taken from my shed, Petrol strimmer, hedgecutters, sun loungers etc etc. Only thing left was the mower which was probably too heavy for them to carry! The value isn't much more than my home insurance access so no point in claiming.
    Anyone know anyone with a Rottweiler for sale!

    Thanks Ziggy. Worse things happen at sea, as they say. At least I can mow the lawn and lie on a blanket when it's cut!

    I use a soldering iron to melt my name and postcode into most of my tools. And then on the scumbags forehead when they get caught.

    Trouble is, everytime the police pick up the scumbag, they deliver it round to my postcode for another kicking:DOH:

      Rob you have my sympathy, it doesn`t matter the cost. Just the fact that the sods did it.

        So sad to hear this news.
        But. I`m afraid it`s a sign of our times that this happens.
        So annoying.

        Though I bought what seemed to be a really good padlock for my shed, I was shown how easy it is to open them. All you need is a hammer and a bit of steel rod or something. Smart whack and the bolt flies open!

        I'm so sorry for your loss, Rob. That really stinks.

        I saw on the North East news last night that theives are having a field day nicking tractors and other farm machinery. Plus this one farmer who's had his sheep rustled not once but twice in recent months! incroyable
