Opportunist Theft
A couple of weeks ago someone in the dead of night entered my garage and stole an assortment of power tools and various other items. This morning I went outside to get two large sheets of treated board they were gone. They were not on the pavement they were in my driveway I had placed them there whilst I tried to organise my garage. It would have taken two people to carry or flatbed truck.
What makes me mad is I have worked hard all my life for what I have. Well I hope the person/s get what they deserve throughout their life.
So please be extra careful.
