To the person who stole my window?can I have it back please?!

?

I recently had a glazed timber window frame taken/stolen from the front of my house on Underhill Road.? This was left for me by my local carpenter out the front of my house. He is now in his 70s and has lived on Underhill for the majority of his life so probably wasn?t expecting it to be stolen from his long experience of the area. This may sound a bit na?ve, as the taker may have innocently thought it was destined for the tip, but it was up by the front door in my porch rather than at the end of the drive by the rubbish/road. It also had a clear note on it, implying that it was not rubbish and to be taken.

?

This has left me with an awkward situation with my carpenter as I didn?t ask him to leave it unmanned at the front of my house.? If anyone has taken this, please can they? let me know, I understand if you thought it was up for grabs?but it wasn?t!!? besides it is a bespoke size and I doubt anyone else will find a good use for it.


Thanks for reading.

That's awful. It seems as if various people think anything not screwed down is fair game at the moment.


Have you reported it to the police? I believe that if it's on private property, even if out in the open, it's still technically theft. If you see something in someone's front garden, you're supposed to ring the doorbell and ask permission to remove it. I know we've had people do that before.


Hope you track it down.

    • Yep, of course I do - did you not read the bit from the survey about the noise having a negative impact on foraging bats? And like @Angelina I'm aware it affects other people, and if no one complains then it gives them an argument that's it's all ok.  The tree in question was a cherry that everyone loves, didn't need to be touched, and the council admitted was a mistake and shouldn't have happened.  The council and Gala use the 'local' narrative as a benefit, without any figures to back it up. It is used as an argument for the event to go ahead, when there's no basis of fact. The attendees are clearly not local as they've proved they don't give a **** about the area. The council do tell us where the money is spent - 100% on running the Events dept, and a myriad of unlisted free events. They just don't tell us how much, so that we can make an informed decision on whether the gain is with the pain.  Sorry, what was your point again?
    • Leon came this evening and did a small job.  He was able to fit me, which I’m grateful for.  He arrived when he said he would. Very professional & friendly guy, offered great advice and very reasonable prices.  Highly recommend Leon! 👍  
    • Thanks, that's quite big, isn't it?
    • Lots of people are concerned about the impact on the environment.  I’m not personally bothered by the noise but I know people are and I will therefore lend my support in challenging the management and location of the event.
