That is very impressive it even caught me mowing the front lawn,but don't tell the Mrs the gardener was sick that week.
Didn't expect them to do a quiet backwater in Essex, on another level quite scary.

Must have been a summers day when they did ours it was wet.

Just seen some really clear closeup pictures of the JML abode. But they must be several months old as my old van is shown parked outside which I sold off in August last year.

My gaffe wasn't picked up.
To many sticks.
What benefit is that? Seems like some people have little to do.

Definitely pre August 2009.
Our old managers car is in his usual place in the works car park and he retired on 28th August.
I must have biked it that day as my car is not in the car park or at home.

Just been round a few of my neighbours properties with this. I know for certain some of them will be none to happy.
A lot of theft round here. Not little things like house burgularies where a usless tv might be stole but farm equipment from 2k trailers to 40k tractors and excavators!
This will be a big help for the gangs to case a joint before they swoop.
Will also lead them to other targets.

Most of the images are about a year old though Norcon.

But John Terry's is.......

Blas I don't see how being a year old makes a difference. Places don't change very much.
I have just noseyed into a local road that Im not that familiar with and seen the layout of the buildings.
I could drive there tomorrow and hide my van out of sight from the road and walk around the place and see if the 30k John Deere is still there in his back yard.
Perhaps a 50k one is there now!

My brothers farm plant ( 60k worth) is sitting in his front yard fully visible.
He had a ruk with a gypo a few months back noseying around.
I know a lot of farmers and know that most of them wouldn't think twice about ledding a would be thief at the moment!
