Hi Guys,
i am really annoyed and angry this morning.Some-one,during the early hours has taken my xmas tree from under the window.

I buy a 6fter every year.decorate it with lights and it stands outside for all to enjoy.....i just feel like crying,i have had a walk around for any evidence and discovered all the lights thrown and broken on the main road.

Come on!

realistically ......
Why on earth would you want to clutter up your garden, drive, patios, etc with inane objects like Christmas trees and lights, cars, wheely bins, garden furniture........you must've put them there just for their amusement?


obviously these toe rags considered that you had no right to do that? and take delight in destroying whatever you think is nice......

They obviously found out too late that there is a shortage of trees this year.

I get so sick of these people who think they can just help themselves to somebody else's property.

I would report it to the police as a warning to other people.

It is obviously very upsetting for you and I am sorry for that.

On my journey to and from work I see a lot of people have put trees outside this year.They look lovely.
But I am not shocked to hear yours has gone,as I sit on the bus and wonder how long these trees will remain in gardens
Its a sad fact of life ,but there is always someone ready to take them for what ever reason
I too would be angry and upset about it
Sorry this happened to you,but as already said it is a sad fact of life and the way of the world these days
How sad some people are

In the summer we lost a bird bath from our front garden.

Although it was fairly small it was heavy, in two pieces and would have taken two people or a vehicle to carry away.
