Yet another robbery

[arbogrunt]

A company I climb for now and then in South East Essex has been broken into:thumbdown:. They lost the following chainsaws etc at the weekend;

 

1 x Jonsered (36" bar - not sure what model)

3 x MS200T

2 x Husq 262

2 x Husq 287XP

2 x Stihl 30" hedgetrimmers

2 x Stihl blowers

1 x Stihl HT75

1 x Echo pole pruners

 

Anyone having any offers of 'second hand' gear, please let me know on here and I'll pass any info on.

 

On a happier note, 2 tractors stolen in Ingatestone, Essex were recovered from a 'Travellers site' in Basildon after being stolen last weekend. They had just been fitted with trackers the week before! - result.

south/east essex seems to be pikey central.

there are some VERY dodgy areas down here. In some places you have to have one bloke 'on stag' whilst the rest work. I also had some bloke hang out of a slow moving car and make a grab for my 357XP. He was only joking...but so was I as my bitch slap skimmed the top of his head as the car drove past!.

When in comes to tools you can't take any chances, I've had Pikeys follow my wagon back to the yard before, the best thing to do is photograph them, they don't like that much.

Keep your gear safe fellas!

working for a firm earlier in the year, digging out in Southend, on the last night of the job, took our 7.5 tonner c/w tracked jensen & trailer, all the tools. the 12 year old policeman who came out when the theft was discovered the following morning told us it'd probably be on a boat already.

Heading straight out of Tilbury, most likely. That place is so dodgy. Arbogrunt and I did a job over there on Monday and we kept our eyes on the gear all the time.

...and the 'brasses' on the street corner across the road (discounts for AA approved contractors?!). What a lovely little spot.....
