Thieves!

Post: # 39263Post Merry »

I`m well fed up. We`ve had our allotment shed broken into again!
It was really well secured - no screws showing, only coach bolts - barred window etc. They just smashed the door frame and wrenched the door off. They took tools and the strimmer we got to replace the last one the bar stewards swiped. I went to let the site secretary know and found out that they`d smashed their way into the toilet block and stripped the copper pipes out.
(I know, I know, really lucky to have flush toilets anyway :lol: )
Gnash Gnash (that`s me teeth)

Oh, man, that sucks. I absolutely can't abide folk who steal. Gnashing my own teeth in sympathy

Your shed needs electifying! I am sorry to hear that you've had all your stuff pinched. It's just terrible after you'd made the effort to secure it all.

I am not surprised your teeth are gnashing!
If in doubt ~ use a hammer!

Bastards. It'd probably be easier to electrify the copper pipes in the toilets (as long as you remember to turn them off before you pee).
