That time I put the garden lights from my garage door and all through my footpath. I was upset when that happened and didn't get new ones until last year. These are solar garden nights. Those nights may not cost much to others but to me it was. Obviously must be same culprit that took the garden lights. Does anyone had the same experience which happened to me? I realised that none of my neighbours have any in their garden. ?have these happened to my neighbours too? I am in Antrim Place in Nawton. I am not sure if I should get new ones or maybe outdoor solar sensor lights instead fixed on the wall . Does anyone aware about these thefts?
