3 houses (on seperate occasions over the past week) on my Close have had their lead flashing pinched from over the porch and bay window... Description from one neighbour was '3 lads aged about 16/17'

Don't know if any other streets nearby have been affected...

Birchwood Ave/Birchwood Close/Kinmel Close/St Annes Close area...

Someone tried that in our street a couple of years ago - Mine ended up all bent but still there so I replaced it with some "flashbanding tape" and sold the lead to that place behind the Carlton - got nearly a tenner for it.

One of the neighbours left his up but painted it in vandal paint - the scalls don't like getting it on their trackies!

Three young unemployed males trying to get off benefits by becoming rag and bone men?
Using pushbikes instead of horse and carts, and not even leaving balloons or gold fish!

There is an awfull lot to be said for the old testament in so much as if you steal something you should pay by losing a limb.


O give thanks unto the LORD; for he is good; for his mercy endureth for ever ...

I'd bet my own money those particular lead fairies are home bred Birkonians, not gypsies or travellers!

I think in India they get beaten severly with bats, sticks and stones if caught even stealing an apple.

you just can't blame people in Birkenhead, this is probably going on all over the wirral, i do agree though catch the barstard and a give them hard punishment, not just a cell with 3 hot meals a day, oh and a playstation 3 in there cell, name and shame, we all work hard to have nice houses ect, just for ... like these to come a wreck it, i blame the scrap yards as well, if you get the same lads coming in with lead all the time you should smell a rat,
