Re: Travellers up back alleys in Ossy again
Funny. We had them knock on the door. "got any metal" is what I think they said. We said no we do not have any metal. Te reply was "how about that bed"
We had a bed in the back garden. They was welcome to it we said. But. There was no metal in the bed we, it is a divan. They suddenly lost interest.
Also HBC didn't come to pick it up either. Instead I got an email saying they couldn't come due to the roadworks in the peel area, I couldn't believe my ears. On my block there at lease 4 ways to get onto the back alley and the road works was down the street.

Re: Travellers up back alleys in Ossy again
H.B.C. are as much to blame as anyone fer this action, yeh ring em up n they say, it will be collected within 10-14 days, so leave yer back door open, its no wonder people leave stuff out fer these people, it sure aint safe these days to leave yer gate unlocked, There was also n owd guy on our row had some ally ladders nicked from his yard 3/4 yrs ago, Yeh can't prove who nicked em, but i know were my money would go. n Rindy, yer question i think was answered by Flashy yesterday, but it may have been removed?

Re: Travellers up back alleys in Ossy again
We once had an old gas fire in the yard just after we moved in
the back gate was barred but they climbed over next doors wall as there gate was open.
they then unbarred the gate and i caught them leaving with the gas fire in our wheelie bin.
got the bin back .

i have no problem with them asking Mick, it's when like you say, they just enter your property without your say so

Re: Travellers up back alleys in Ossy again

Re: Travellers up back alleys in Ossy again
Always a good idea to write down a number-plate -just in case things start to disappear -the Police might have something to follow up then...

Re: Travellers up back alleys in Ossy again

Yes, a P.O. box, in the west of Ireland.
Though as yet no one has been along to collect all the fines.
Whoops.
All the mail.

I wouldn't know that, they probably don't have insurance or anything being of no fixed abode but the police can put an allert out on a number plate and stop and search them.
When I was over in April a similar thing happened in Rishton as a van kept touring round the estate where I was staying at a friends -a number of motorbikes and other things got taken over a weekend and we had written down the number-plate to get it checked out. Don't know if anything came of it though..
