Blower Stolen Off Site Today

[sedgemoortree]

We had our 10 day old Husqvarna 580 BTS backpack blower stolen today. It was on Hamilton Road in Taunton, Somerset.

Serial number on Arbsafe 96662960150201332015

 

Truck parked on the front drive working in the back garden carrying branches through to the front , left the dipstick work experience lad blowing up the front garden while we finish cutting out the back. He then, for reasons only known to himself leaves it slap bang in the middle of the turning area for all to see, it must have been like a bloody homing beacon being so bright and shiny new.

It wasn't until an hour later when I told him to blow up in the back when we realised the numpty had left it out the front and discovered that some opportunist had taken this most excellent opportunity and made off with our blower into the dingy underworld of Taunton were it has probably already been sold for a £20 quick fix!

Gutted, its not even earnt us any money yet.

Don't expect anyone on here to see it but had to vent, "a problem shared" and all that.

Sorry to hear that. Only takes a second for these things to happen

I know the feeling oh too well. You can't let anything out of your sight these days for a moment. I'll keep an eye out but unlikely to hear anything realistically.
