Now I’ve been the attempted victim of some light fingered Sunday daytime bandits. Luckily they’ve got spooked when the glass unit exploded or theyve been disturbed.
Thy weren’t interested in the shed which was unlocked, nothing missing. Mrs soecialized bike still in there.

Tool marks on the door.

Is Essex really as bad as it would seem on here
I always thought it was supposed to be an affluent area

Its not somewhere I have been much

Just looked at a map....other than playing in a football tournament in Southend back in the 70s (about 4 years running as we kept winning it).....I dont think Ive ever been to Essex

There is wealth but it’s also a dumping ground for London and more than our fair share of caravaners

It will only get worse as people who were not officially working therefore no furlough get desperate

I was born in Essex. My olds still live there.

Their road had had the phone lines stolen. The man hole covers stolen.
Even the actual street sign has been robbed...

Their house has never been had over though, thankfully. They've had dogs since before I was born so maybe that's it.

That's a right bugger - they must've been after something.

Just saw this, if your road is listed, it'll tell you how many crimes your particular road has had to put up with since lockdown began.

I'm assuming they don't list the zero-rated roads - either that or all the crims are "quite busy" down your neck of the woods!

All the Best,
CJ

Not good - i like to think of shipping containers as "safe" storage.
Or at least I used to!

All the Best,

[arther dailey]

since cordless grinders came to the market nothing is safe

 

[Matchless]

you should need a council tax bill to be able to buy a cordless grinder, just spotted the flaw, I said buy!
