I travelled to Grantham today and whilst on the A453 was aware of all of the construction equipment widening the road. Imagine how amazed I was to see 2 strimmers left unattended along with a chipper. I could easily have taken both of these and nobody would have known. The chipper would have been a bit more difficult but if I had had the balls I could have just reversed up hitched it to my truck and be away. My 2 lads could not believe that someone could have been so irresponsible as to leave them on the side of a main road. I have drilled into them to keep everything under lock and key.

To make matters worse this was less than 200m form a council estate!!!!

 

Sorry some of the pics may not be that clear

Tracked or towed I could have had it away in no time if I had gone equipped!! Unlike our travelling friends I do not go equipped to steal, but if I had a trailer it would have been mine!!!

guessing you mean A153 as A413 is 70 mile from here. W only a few miles away. Good Jensen territory but be careful as there are plenty of travelling types very local.

 

 

A453 just outside Nottingham the road that takes you to the East Mids airport and Ratcliffe on Soar
