Cheeky sods !!!
I had a bout 15kg of used auto wire all wound into shanks and sat in a 30L tub.
I stuck it on the end of the drive whilst moving the locost last night and forgot to put it away.
Travellers where spotted doing there door to door scrap run today and guess what ....yep its gone..
Cheeky Sods I wouldnt have mind if they had asked as I was fed up of moving it all the time.

My mate has recently got a nice house that needs a full refurb.
He was clearing the crap out and leaving it in the front garden.
Daily the local travellers would take any heavy scrap metal. 4 of them even returned one afternoon to collect a cast iron bath (2 of them neally broke
their backs taking it 3 hours earlier)
Anyways my mate had to tell to pi$$ off and call it a day when they started letting themselfs in the side gate and rumaging through the garage!!!!
They do take the biscuit, no social savvy.
Track days ARE the best thing since sliced bread, until I get a supercharger that is!

That's because it's not nailed down
Calling them 'cheeky sods' is a bit lenient on them IMHO
Dutch bears have terrible skin due to their clogged paws

Most travellers I've met are super nice people, but i've not met the transit van/leave rubbish everywhere type of travellers. Shame that
every community/group/type of people has it's ****s
The mental gymnastics a landlord will employ to justify immoral actions is clinically fascinating. Just because something is legal doesn't make
it moral.

Best one I had was when I left a shower screen on front drive when refurbing a bathroom. A guy asked if he could have it I said yes and went back
inside. Later found he had scraped it across driveway. smashed the glass against front wall and just took the ally!! Never again.

I'd rather live near politicians.
In fact I'd rather live IN a Star Wars convention
