Woke up this morning to find lengths of waste pipe next to my van on the drive, I thought oh god, looked at garage and door was open. Two lengths of copper snapped in half and dumped in the flowerbed.

Luckily when the travellers turned up the other week (not saying this was them) I took everything of real value inside the house.

They left a bundle of copper and only made off with an old 1.3ah nicad Dewalt Combi drill.

They left a bundle of copper?! Proves it wasn't me at least!

I thought you all left your doors open in Yorkshire??
 
Yes, at least they left me my Halfords socket set. That's inside now..
 
If they left d copper I reckon they were on foot r on a bike.
I got my van broke into 1 time. All they took was d parking money. About 40€. Left analyser drills etc. Couple of junkies walking up d road I'd say
 
they left a bundle of copper!

they will get a slap of their dads when they got back.lol
if it were my garage at the door just inside...ever seen a cattle fence wire?
 
Feel for you.
Funny how when my garage was done over a couple of years ago, there were some travellers camped a couple of miles away! Police said don't go looking there for your suff.
