Title: Stealing Fuel.
Post by: Raven on June 11, 2022, 03:49:54 PM
Dear Lord things are really getting bad. :wtf: I hope no one comes creeping around here in the dark looking for fuel out of the cars or tractor. Guess the outside lights will need to be left on overnight.
Watch where you park your cars folks.  :boo:

I imagine that you are remote enough for it to be unlikely. It isn't as if it has reached £10 a thimbleful. Well not yet anyway.

If they can get my petrol cap off they can have it.. It takes me ages to unlock it.. I usually have to get someone to help me when I'm getting petrol..
Anyway my motor is so old they will probably think it's not running anymore..
So much for old motors..  :clap:

Me too Scrumpy, no one would bother nicking mine.  I did intend to get petrol today, but there was a b.big queue.

Also have to worry about stealing oil from oil tanks.
