Tips on breaking and entering?

[Seahorse]

I'm in!

After all that fussing about with questions, then taking a selection of equipment that I could have taken on Fort Knox with, I was in in about 2 minutes flat

I levered off the wood that was nailed across the doors, hacksawed the bottom padlock and (as I realised someone had done 90% of the job before ) pulled off the top padlock by hand. That didn't quite get me in, as I discovered the doors were nailed shut but a bit of brute force sorted that.

Bit of a miscellany inside!

Useful to me:

wheelbarrow
hanging baskets
Workmate (very old!)
table
wood
screws, nails etc

Possibly of use to someone else:

gas bottle
two hamster cages
LOTS of odds and ends of paint
wallpaper
bits of bike (possibly almost a whole one!)

Not a lot of use to anyone:

mouldy curtains
mouldy carpet
world's largest spider

I took some pics but I can't upload them for some reason (not that they are very interesting!!!).

hello after you have sorted your lock out check your roof,because weve just had a breakin ta our allotments and because we had strong locks on they took the roofs of the sheds,honestly it was crazy we thought we had good security and all they had to do was take the scews of the roof ,so easy..apple

One of the grapes had the shed nicked I seem to remember !!

Well done seahorse I almost volunteered to come and do it for you it was so enthrauling

The Gas bottle - I'd see about hanging on to that incase you want to have a gas powered greenhouse heater - is it still worht advertising them to save folks paying the initial deposit??

Hello apple - what b******s! I hope you didn't loose too much

Don't think I'll want to use the gas bottle - I can forsee far too many scary 'how does this work Mummy?' moments there! If it might be worth something to another plot holder though, I'll have an ask around. I'm not sure if there are any issues re disposing of them (might still have gas in it for all I know!) so someone else taking it would be my best option really!
