I have recently been trying to clear some wasteland behind my house, which i own but the previous owner had left uncleared. the trees on it are now pushing down a retaining wall so its time to clear it. starting from the boundary fence next to the road, i have cleared the level area, and then started hacking down the bank. i bought a galvanised dustbin incinerator to dispose of the cleared undergrowth and did the first burn sunday night.
so, we have, a hed hot glowing lump of metal, full of ash, on private land, inside a fence next to a quiet but well lit road, with very few houses and no real thoroughfare for yobs, and it was raining.
and some shite pinched it overnight! :mad:
i mean, how pathetic is someones life that they have to steal a garden incinerator?
Next time you smell somebody having a bonfire, have a peek over their fence.
Its not the sort of thing you would want to drag very far and you never know just how daft people can be.
A friend had all his work tools stolen from his van one night. Three days later a bright yellow torch with his name on it was visible inside the front window of a house across the road.
D’Oh!
whats to report? someone pinched a £25 dustbin, can you imagine our police getting out of the donut shop for that? these idiots cant catch a kiddie-fiddler, let alone something trivial.
no, i just intend to wait until someone local has a bonfire, and if they are using my incinerator, i will return the compliment to their car.
Lol nice
Shame people resort to such silly things tho…
i mean if they really needed to use it at least ask…
not just go and steal it.
But in this world if it’s not nailed down its pinched.
and its sad really.
Its worth reporting if you have the time just to keep the statistics in check.
Every crime thats unsolved helps to slow down the spin doctors.
Theres also a slender chance of it being taking as part of a larger haul, maybe sombody did all the sheds in your street last night but got pulled over in their “Motorway Maintenance” van before they could unload it all.
Your Incinerator could be in a lost property office near you right now
(or one exactly like it… )
