Last night about half ten the yard light came on i noticed a citeroen balingo/ peugeot parner van pull up down the lane on the camera was there about 2 mins no more and reversed out slowly and drove off back towards the road.
Cut a long story short i decided to keep a look out for this van so i stayed on ebay waiting for an item to end and looking on here and piston heads guntree etc , and it got to about 1.30 and i was ready for bed, I had just drooped off and our lass wakes me up the lights on and toms barking, i went down stairs like three at a time and out the back door through the gate and in to the yard i could see the little shed door is open and a little scum bag is legging it across the lawn with my labrador and springer running round him barking, i set off running he fell over the springer and i honestly thought i would get him, but he got up and made it to the wall just before me, his mates were shouting something either at me or him i am not sure, the van started up and they were off with two in the back with the rear doors open,. I was a spectator then, and man was i tired you could have hit me with a brick i would have felt nothing i was that raved up.
They had got one of those crappy chinese generators a two stroke and an ancient still strimmer laid at the side of the lane, they must have gone in fast as anything or some how broke in without the dogs hearing. The tri circle cheapy lock had been cut and i won these beauties he drooped them on the lawn when he fell over the dog.
Get insurance for vehicles.
I got turned over in january nicked my xt and a lt50 the kids play on, but the police were super fast and got them back, cost me 150 to get them out the compond but at least they got them back for us.
That was gippos for sure, this lot were no way as efficient and fancy nicking junk like that, still all this brought the January raid flooding back to me, i got that horrible feeling of a mix of anger tinged with bewilderment and that just wishing it had not happened at all.
Anyhow get your cars bikes trikes quads etc that are not actually insured for the road, sorned or off roaders insured. This reminded me of that feeling of total loss when the garage doors are open all the easy to move stuff gone and your house insurance covering nothing vehicle at all, i was in this position back in January and indeed still am uninsured for this., if you know of a company that will insure motors against theft when in storage, please let me know.
But let my wake up call please be yours get them insured some how i am this time, next time and it looks like there will be a next time i could lose out big style.
Man if i had caught him i would have lethered the little rat.
