Re: Urgent, can anyone help?
And your too nice a bloke to mention his name ? Not that most of us don't know anyways..
Cant see the supporters club getting there 100 quid (paid for ladies tooilet to be done up) back either.

Re: Urgent, can anyone help?
How awful to be conned like that by a person you trusted. When it's someone you thought was a mate that makes it even worse. I'm glad to hear you got somebody to come round and sort out the leak and hope it won't be too long before you can get the rest fixed.
It's demoralising when the police can't do anything either isn't it? You'd think it was a crime wouldn't you, taking somebody's money and clearing off to Thailand with it.

Re: Urgent, can anyone help?
If you think about it its a bit sad on two counts, firstly for UKcowboy but secondly that a person should effectively sell his friends and hometown for such a small amount of money(yes, I know 3K is a lot in one swoop but in the course of a lifetime its nowt) as he can't come back to it now.

Re: Urgent, can anyone help?
oh he definitely can't come back to accy. he was mates to a few of us and as far as we know has only does this to uk and sparkie.. whats strange is they probably did more for him and helped him more than anyone else..
But for me.. I know people thieve and I know there arn't many angels about.. some of my mates are rouges... But I wouldnt want to be mates with someone who could hurt a friend.. I would name and shame in a second on here.. but there maybe a reason ukcowboy hasnt and as he has been effected most then....

Re: Urgent, can anyone help?
I have no problems 'naming and shaming' the guy............most accyweb members will know him anyway.
I had totally forgoten about the Supporters Club giving him £100 to spruce up the ladies toilets at Stanley.
Yes Sparks and I did do a lot for him when he was homeless/potless, we gave him a roof over his head for 9 months or so and didnt charge him a penny in rent etc, coz we thought that was what 'mates' do......guess we were wrong huh!!?
Well BUDMAK ( AKA Michael Anthony Kenyon )should you ever decide to show your face in Accy again please do pop round for a chat
On a more positive note, thanks to Tommy,a local plumber, who came round last night and sorted out the leak at very short notice so at l;east we can now have a bath!!!!

I follow his jib, I'm gutted that this has happened to you, more so at this time of year, for what I know of you, you are both very decent and likeable indivduals. |What this gentleman has done is an insult to all decent people, everwhere. I really hope that you find the right people to put things right.
I am suprised at the indivdual who perpetrated this act, more so if it's the one I think is responsible.
(I should have continued to read the thread before commenting)
Q: Was the work that was been done abroad genuine or not?
Glad to here that you've had a bath ahead of tomorrows game.....

to be honest Doug I dont know, I would like to think He had a modicum of decency in Him, and that the 'work abroad ' was for real. However on this showing I'm afraid I have my doubts.

******, Gutted because I'd like to think that in cases like this you can trust that what you gave is making a differance to peoples lives, more so when it's kids. I suppose we have to accept that there's always those that will explote such tragic events. can I ask, was their a relative lost over there are is that untrue?

Re: Urgent, can anyone help?
Im afraid yet again I must say I have my doubts..................but deep inside I so hope that we werent 'conned' on that one again.
If someone could be so callous as to invent such a story then they are totally beyond any help any decent person could offer.
That said Doug, I could be doing the guy a mis service, however I suspect we shall never know.

Re: Urgent, can anyone help?
Cheer’s UK. Like you say, we can only hope. I have to say that aspect has upset me some what. Still we live and learn, at least we can only hope we do. Gutted on both counts.

Re: Urgent, can anyone help?
To be perfectly honest none of us know whats true or not... We have since found out he has multiple passports and driving licences..
He has sold his boat that he was supposedly living on.. his power tools and other odds and sodds on ebay... this and the timing he had with uk cowboy.. the day he had set to come back to petes to do more work was the same day he was going to thailand.. I thought maybe he had lost the money or somehting and couldnt face pete.. but it turns out that isn't possible.. it was all worked out
However the good money is on him not even going abroad..
The chances are he will be reading this thread at some point in time because no matter where he is.. he will have internet access and will be curious..
All I have to say is
Mike....A good old fiddle.. or doing an insurance scam or not repaying the provvy... I could live with knowing that.... But stealing from friends who have helped you.. how could you do that?
If your not sleeping at night. send the money back.. It wont make up for anything but you will at least know your not hurting people who went that extra mile for you. You know how to.. Do it soon..
