I just thought that it would be useful to alert all allotment tenants within the Worcestershire area in particular to the fact that this seems to be an organised gang, who obviously arrive with transport, and given that the method for breaking into all of the sheds wasn't consistent and happened in a very short period of time, that there are several of them working together. They obviously seem to have an outlet for these machines, and again it would be useful to know if anyone is offered what appears to be a dubious item at a knockdown price from a seller who wouldn't have a genuine reason to have owned one in the first place. I was ok, I didn't lose anything, but I am so angry at the upset that has been caused to fellow, mostly elderly, plotholders that I thought I'd just put the information out there.
If nothing else, if you are all forewarned, it might prevent others from suffering the same losses.
