Last night my yard was broken into. Padlocks on gates cut through with bolt cutters, tack room was forced open but luckily they didn't steal my saddles etc but took some really strange items.
About 4 pairs of woof wear boots but not any others. 4 sets of spurs that were in a box with my hat but left the hat. There were loads of numnahs and rugs but they only took 3 rugs that were freshly washed and in bags. Loads of tools. My Liveryman Arena clippers and another Matador pair. Unfortunately they took a computer that was in there. Other odd things were they took a couple of bags of feed that were stacked but left another one, and also they wen't into the stable block and took one grooming kit (left another one??) left the rugs that were also in there but threw a number of items on the floor.
I know they used my wheelbarrows to move the stuff and had obviously from tracks had a van parked out of site to put it all into.
I count myself lucky but most of my leather items like headcollars etc are stamped so don't know whether this put them off and all the horses were fine.
It was done between the hours of 6.00pm - 8.00am but please make sure your items are safe.
