We had our horse feed and bedding stolen just before Christmas - all bedding (Easibed shavings) was marked, so were most of the bags of horse feed - so it is unlikely that they can be sold, but just the same; someone thinks whenever they need more bedding or more feed for their horse they'll just go and get it from the yard nearby - the police won't do anything?
If the police has the attitude that they won't or cannot do anything, so why bother - next time I need a bale of shavings, I'll just go at 3 am and nick it from the yard near me; even though they know it's me the police won't bother to do anything???
Is this where we've come to - cannot fight the criminals even though there is clear evidence that they've taken our stuff??? All the police need to do is to go and make a routine visit to some people they have in mind, to check whether they have bags of marked feeds / bedding and they'd nail them - but no, they are not interested / don't have the resources... but if I happened to speed a bit (well I can't much as my car is very old!!!) on the way back from the stables - ho ho they DO have resources to book me??
