north devon theft

[otter]

yep the thieving fairground gypo's broke into my lock-up on thursday night and stole all my saw's etc

ms200t,ms185x2,ms260,ms291 (brand new),ms460 stihl pole saw and hedge trimmer and bg56 blower and some loppers etc.

my lock up had 2 locks outside and 1 inside and a security light all cut and smashed.

so my advice is what ever you do to protect your kit "DOUBLE IT"

i live near barnstaple and dont know if these gits are local or from far but all be warned and dont think it want happy to you.

AAAAAAAAAGGGGGGGGGGHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH

[arbmark]

gutting. cheers for the heads up - i'm not far away. hope it was insured. might leave the dog outside for a few nights! google makes it so easy these days. i reckon there must be a way of tracking if someone is googling tree surgeons around the country but as a simple trog of the finest sort i might be talking rubbish

How do you know that they were 'fairground gypos' rather than the 'run-of-the-mill' kind?

[jimmyjnr]

There is a difference between show poeple and gypos, I have worked for the show poeple and they are a good bunch so let's not tar all travellers the same.

Sorry to hear that, i dont live to far away. weve had two transits pull up in the farm recently, first time they got arsey with father because he asked what did they want,THEY told him to take a bloody photo for crime stoppers! I would have on the phone.

 

Second time drove in, different transit, tipper with Landscsaping on the front asking for batterys,one of em talked the other just looked round the place! dad told em to f-off, young lad and chap bout mid 50s.

 

Cant trust no one.
