firewood stolen

[dryadlad]

Just visited my nicely stacked pile of billets , to find that every piece has been robbed . It must have taken a hour to shift , by the looks of the tyre tracks it was a 4x4 and another vehicle on the road .And just to top that ive got the squitts from our nipper, so all in all a good weekend so far. P.S the wood was nr wincanton in somerset , beware the ****** are about !

So sorry to hear that how much do you think?

 

Theft is now one of my biggest worry's, i had a couple of trailers go last year (12 cube) and am still convinced it was an inside job!

spoke to a firewood merchant from tamworth, who told me he had a visit and they stole his kindling machine and all his nets of sticks hed done, the police managed to get back his kindling machine, but wouldnt tell him where it was - for fear of him going and setting light to their transits with conny tops on and facia boarding! - but hasnt got his 1000 or so nets of sticks ,so they will be offloading those around the midlands soon im guessing!

I think the mentality of firewood value needs to change from us guys.

 

It is becoming in more demand year on year, and when you think ready processed its worth more per ton than scrap(and that walks).

 

If its left unattended its going to go!

this seams like a great camera. ltl 5210a look it up on ebay, best price so far is £118.

So very very true. It's becoming harder for these people to sell the scrap now so they're turning to fire wood instead. I'm in the process of improving security at the mo.I advise everyone else do the same. Bad times ahead I fear.
