I feel for you. I dont have my tackle in the shed, thank God!!!! some slimey rat(s) knocked the padlock off our shed a couple of weeks ago and did not take anything, they must have been looking for small stuff the likes of power tools etc.
The bloke next door called and informed us a load of sheds had been done in, I was out the front door and around the back areas looking for the rat(s) with a weapon, if I had caught someone climbing from the derelict houses (soon to be demolished) I would have been in nick now, awaiting my trial.
The way I see it, no rat on this earth is gonna take away what I have worked hard for, ever, I make no apologies for my post, I keep saying, there are too many do-gooders in this world, we need a deterrent. One slime ball exposed himself to my daughter (at the time, 8 yrs of age) in the seventies, I found him, he paid the price. If you know who they are, dont let them get away with it, they will do it again.
