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.

    • Very happy to add my recommendation for TDR property maintenance. Tony and his team have transformed my front garden, breaking up a bare patch of concrete and laying a beautiful victorian tiled path. They've also repaired a wall and a fence for us. Richard's tiling has been meticulous and Tony's communication has been great throughout the process. We wouldn't hesitate to use him again. 
    • Perhaps this could be part of your proposed forum meet up, the cheese I hasten to add @Sue
    • Sounds like you've had some interesting evenings 🤣
    • Shame, go there!  Although embarrassingly we only used it takeaway during lockdown.  It's a Persian store/cafe/restaurant if you are unaware of the cultural reference in the name.   Just checked the menu and it is phenomenal and good value too, thanks for reminding me to go there  https://foratasteofpersia.co.uk/restaurant/
