It can't be hard to miss that we have been having unwanted visitors in the village, the kind that decide that your precious goods are there for them to steal. I say visitors because I have always been of the belief that most people of this persuasion work on the principle of not shitting in their own backyard. If they are not and are residents of the village, then we are in trouble, or rather they are.
A friend of mine lives in an area that has a terrible reputation. Anything of value that you keep in a shed has to be riveted to the floor or it gets stolen. Thankfully things aren't that bad in this neck of the woods, but it makes you wonder if the lack of street lighting in the early hours of the morning is helping these thieves. Better get that shed alarm now instead of later
Anti social behaviour also seems to be on the rise again, so much so that a resident has set up a Facebook page - Stamp out Mistertons antisocial behavior - The Pudge seems to be the main magnet for these little thugs. So if you want to name and shame, pay the site a visit. It might be nice and quiet where you live in the village but others are having some real problems.
Just a thought, but the parish council newsletter indicates that due to the success of catching people in the speed watch traps, the police have raised the bar for reporting speeding to 43 miles an hour. Would it not have been more prudent to keep this little snippet of information to themselves.
