I have had a terrible afternoon today.
I had a bad head (which wouldn't clear) so I cried off work this afternoon.
I was sat here talking to Weezy on MSN when I heard a noise outside.
I went for a nose and there wasn't anybody at the back door, so I looked out of the patio doors and someone was lay on the floor hitting the breaks on the trailer wheels!!!!!!!!!!
I ran to the back door and shouted at the guy on the floor to "FOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOK OFF!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!"
He jumped up and the guy in the 4X4 waiting with the engin running shouted him. He jumped in the car and they drove off at mega speed!!!!!!!
I ran out into the lane and managed to get the Reg. of the 4x4. (so, I'm hoping it was the real Reg!!!)
Contacted the police and they have been out to take details and I have got to email them copies of the pictures I have taken of the wheel treads and foot prints in the snow!!
The trailer was chained to the railings with a motorbike chain and this had been removed sometime from Saturday afternoon onwards (as I had checked it then) The reg plate had also been removed in preparation too.
All this has taken place in broad daylight and on a lane that has constant walkers going up to the woods!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
My only saving grace was the fact that I was here (which I shouldn't have been!!!!!!!!) and that they thought the breaks were stuck on! As it turns out, one of the springs on the back of the trailer had wedged itself under the railings to the garden and was jammed in place!
Please be extra careful with your trailers and keep them out of sight at all times, if at all possible!!!!!!!!!!!
