I don't get what else we are meant to do, myself and the other residents are all in agreement that we will not tolerate theft any longer and we will be our own police force.

I will not stand there and do nothing!!!!!

Default did a bit of our own today

Currently working (project overseeing) at an unoccupied large domestic property, had a call this am from the gardeners having a tidy up, asked where did all the hard core come, (it was hidden from normal view) I replied that there should be none, and told them I would pop in on the way to the merchants, noticed a fresh tarmac repair in the public footpath near the drive and some disturbed pea beech on the drive, met my mate Dave on the roof sorting a chimney, asked him if he noticed anything, he thought about it and mentioned that he thought it odd a day ago that the decorator was on the foot path with a CAT scanner! so we had a good look round.

Was not long before Dave noticed a fold in a carpet in a GF room, pulled it back and hardboard was torn so lifted a board and found a new heavy cable, 3 phase had been installed under the floor.

I leave you to guess what it was intended for.

Needless to say my day was now goosed as had to remain in the property till all the locks were changed and all parties informed inc Police and Supply Co, ongoing this one as can only guess as to who the culprits are, Rick

I take it the cable was live too, it’s a dam good job that has been nipped in the bud before the real damage occurred.

Oh yea it is live, problem now is Elec Co have to dig a 3 to 4 Mtr trench in order to cut out the splice as it is compromising the main cable run, Rick
