They looked beautiful, so sorry some greedy person has taken them.

oh Leigh........:O((---so sorry this happened
in my local paper one youth was responsible for most of the garden thefts-- have you spoken to the neighbours or even your paper, maybe others have lost things too

13 Nov, 2011

 

Aw what a shame! Thye look so pretty too :) Not seen them up here!

13 Nov, 2011

 

Why do people do these things? It will be someone going past, seeing what they like and nicking it when it gets dark. Have a look in local gardens, see if you spot it, gumtree is also somewhere to look in the next few weeks - see if they try to offload it.

Aw no Nosey! there are some mean spirited B......ds about. Let's hope they turn up undamaged somewhere.

13 Nov, 2011

 

Sheer vandalism... I hope the culprits are found..
and that the concrete mushrooms are returned...

13 Nov, 2011

 

That is such a shame keeping my fingers crossed that they are found and the culprit punished:(

13 Nov, 2011

 

Oh Nosey! what a crime, just makes your blood boil. Listen you can rise above this and make some more, you are such a talented artist, make another set and keep them somewhere safe, were these in your front garden originally? They are wonderful Nosey, great design. Sorry you have lost them.

Such a shame, NP! And they were so pretty in your garden. I hope they are found. Clearly someone enjoyed them enough to steal them, but I'm sure you'd rather have your work appreciated in a different way!

13 Nov, 2011

 

Oh,Leigh,I am so sorry,and also very angry at these malicious people..I can't understand their mentality at all..I do hope you find them,and also the culprits..they need more than a 'smacked hand,and don't do it again '
punishment..a B....y good hiding,in my opinion!!

13 Nov, 2011

 

i agree bloomer and do it in public!!

13 Nov, 2011

 

What a shame, it's absolutely disgraceful, some people will take anything that's not nailed down.

13 Nov, 2011

 

We will organise a public lynching,Sticki..or a name and shame policy should be used more than it is...
It doesn't matter if it is nailed down these days,Sheilar..they go forearmed with tools..On Friday,all the street lights were out of action ,on a slip road to one of our main roads..all the cables were stolen and wiring stripped from them,on a long stretch,rendering it very dangerous at night,so had to be closed..The police said it could only have been done during that time,as they would have been seen otherwise..but they are hoping someone will have seen them..they also faced the hazard of being electrocuted,it was so dangerous...it is now being patrolled at night..a bit too late,really,but the police can't be everywhere ,with so much crime..what a world !!

I do hope they are returned. They will be difficult to sell on because they are unique. Someone on here had stuff stolen and they got it all back, I think it was from an allotment ,because of some sharp eyed person. Here's hoping someone spots your mushrooms soon.

13 Nov, 2011

 

I am sorry B, but, all I can say is pity the electrocution didnt work!!! I know thats harsh but...........

13 Nov, 2011

 

Hello leigh! A good place to start, if not thought of already, might be any local car boot sales. I never go ... too much junk or stolen stuff. Could be worth a nose about.

13 Nov, 2011

 

Np I hope whoever has taken them has just moved them as a prank and you get them back, it does happen sometimes, fingers xx.
My dad rang me this morning, he`d been to the cemetery with flowers for Mum, its two years since we lost her, Oct 12th would have been her birthday, Dad had purchased two patio rose bushes and took them out to the grave, he was upset to find they had both been stolen including the special pots...
Those gangs stealing the wiring are obviously moving around the country, it happened a few weeks back to a village only a few miles away from my town, caused a lot of problems and hundreds of homes were without power whilst everything was re-instated, yes my first thought was pity whoever was responsible didn`t electrocute themselves....

Scum. bring back the birch...

13 Nov, 2011

 

Sorry to hear this Np. Can't say what I hope happens to the thief (thieves), but needless to say it's something very unpleasant - won't replace your possessions though, unfortunately.

13 Nov, 2011

 

sorry to hear theyve been stolen. Do hope you get them back.

13 Nov, 2011

 

they should bring back the stocks but use bricks instead of rotten fruit . they were in the front garden . i did have them put in the paper and even said there the only ones on the plannet in there and i got a crime number . the thing is there heavy concrete and people do have great memories so any garden they go in the nieghbers may see them or a workman or an aquaintance so there very hot . if they get dumped ill get them back and if they use them they will get seen . people move and concrete lasts a long long time and its not like there subtle . id imagine there a thorn in the thieves side now . i dont know weather to make 2 so big its impossible to steel them or make them easy and put something very unpleasant on the underside wear you cant see like raser blades or dog mess or both lol . dont worry he who laughs last laughs longest . thanks everyone and keep your eyes out as you never know xx .

13 Nov, 2011

13 Nov, 2011

13 Nov, 2011

 

Sorry to hear this NP...thieving b******s!!
Punishment is too soft!!!! I do hope you get them back.

14 Nov, 2011

 

Oh! what a shame Leigh. Hope they catch the culprit, why can't people leave things alone.?

14 Nov, 2011

 

Linclass the people who stole your mums roses are the lowest of the low. It worries me that stolen and smuggled goods only have a market because people are prepared to buy them. There is something very sick about too many people today.

14 Nov, 2011

14 Nov, 2011

15 Nov, 2011

 

Gosh sorry to hear about this NP, seems like a bit of strange thing to steal, as you say its easily identifiable. My bet would be kids doing it for a laugh and then maybe chucking it. Have you looked nearby in any common land where it could be chucked? a nonsense isnt it, good luck

20 Nov, 2011

 

yes ive had a look around stevie but kids i doubt as id imagine they were very heavy .
thanxanyway xx .
