Man, that's pretty crap.

Good that they were disturbed though, if they were.

Hope it works out for him.

Which garage was it?
Poor fella bet it took him years to collect all those tools and a small fortune.
I will keep my eye out for any on sale.

Used to have to buy your own tools back from a certain shop at one time, there was a chippy who had to buy his mitre saw back twice from that place. Glad to say it went out of business after a while, I was always amazed the guy didn't end up in hospital.

Sounds like they've clocked something they want!

What happened with the 3 comments being removed above? I didn't read them?

It's a shame the police can't find out how many green KA's there are with that reg which are local and go knocking - I'm sure not many of them will be owned by blokes!

CCTV?

Maybe it's not owned by the bloke though?

Hope they get found and caught Chris!

best to ring police and keep out of the way but keep a sly eye on what's happening. once they've legged it they will be harder to trace. thievin' gits.
