People really will steal anything.........

My feckin work shoes from the changing rooms at work.

Our car was nicked and was eventually found four days later in the car park of a fairly rough estate in Tottenham. We went to pick it up but it had been comprehensively trashed....wiper stalks broken off etc. Everything had been taken from the glove compartments, boot etc.......except a pair of expensive green Hunter wellies.
I guess it was a matter of street-cred.

The back gate. when we were in our first house we had a fortnights holiday and got back late Saturday night, on the Sunday morning I was having breakfast before returning the hire car, my Good Lady looked out the window turned and said the back gates gone, I didn't believe her until I looked myself. The thing was it wasn't even a proper gate, the gate was missing when we moved in and I'd cobbled together a temporary gate from scrap timber.

When I owned a paintball site we had a container with some equipment in it. Someone ground the lock loop off, stole the coffee jar and teabags.

Left everything else, freaked me right out.

Yes. The ones i use now are very thick and not too stretchy. The ones i had nicked were i admit a bit flimsy. I suppose by getting them nicked they did me a favour as maybe they were an accident waiting to happen.

Duct tape is so much easier.

I belong to a charitable Trust that has a nature reserve accessed by a farm track off a busy, non-footpath section of the A12 in Suffolk. On open days, the entrance is marked with a small banner hung across two small posts in a hedge, the posts being thumped into the ground with a post rammer.

The posts cost £2 - it cost me more in fuel to get the timber, saw points on it, pick up the rammer from a friend and put them in place. Some ****wit has stolen the posts!

That's maybe ok for some, but I put my ladders on and take them off about 10 times a day. That'd be a lot of tape and effort.

I've had my heart stolen. I forgave her.

18% or 20% grey?

No idea, I never actually used it and to be honest with you, they did me a bit of a favour by pinching it, but that's not the point GODAMMIT!!

Someone stole my car on a torrentially rainy night, abandoned it in a remote part of a remote council estate, and then stole my umbrella out of it. I felt a bit sorry for them to be honest, missed the last bus I expect.

A few months ago i went to my dad's grave to find someone had tipped the plants out the large ornamental cup on his headstone and stolen the cup. I bought it at a charity shop for a few quid. There are some serious saddos out there!

Bag containing bog roll, toothbrush, toothpaste & anti-perspirant nicked from my tent while on a weekend away a few years ago - they ignored the carrier bag of beer!

if you don't chill it, they wont nick it - warm beer should be a crime anyway
