Thief

[maggiebee]

Just had a very upset friend on the phone. She's been to visit her late husband's grave and someone has stolen the wreath that she left there just a few days ago. Probably just a thoughtless act, but I hope the thief realises the hurt he/she has caused.

[B00]

Sure its been stolen and not just blown away?

[tonyav]

Doesn't come much lower than that imo.

That's rotten, maggiebee. No wonder she's upset.

What kind of scum steals from a grave?

[albaqwerty]

There are callous, heartless, mindless numpties out there who should be put down.

[murraymints]

I always tie my wreath to my nan and pop's grave...people will take anything !!!

[maggiebee]

Not blown away Boo, she had it well anchored with a couple of metal tent pegs - apparently not well enough.

[Baldric]

That is a really nasty thing to do.

[kitty123]

Scum of the earth!

[marval]

I am sorry to hear that, I cannot understand the low life who do that.

[tigerlelly]

It's probably hanging on someone's front door. She should take a walk in the neighbourhood.

[Georgiesmum]

They are scum bags. It happens more and more nowadays im afraid. It will probably be sold on the next boot sale/table top sale.

[mrs_overall]

I wish a plague of boils on the thief

[Chipchopper]

If it was stolen, well that's a rotten thing to do and I'm sure whoever it was will regret it
But consider that, if it was a few days ago, it could have been removed be the maintenance staff, at this busy time of year

May I wish you a Happy Christmas & all the best for the New Year

[lady-janine]

so sorry to hear that. the thief needs anchoring down with tent pegs preferably through their feet. please pass on all our good wishes and thoughts to your friend.

[DTCwordfan]

terrible and low-end

[owdhamer]

They deserve a slap with a gravediggers shovel.

[excelsior-1]

that is the most despicable act anyone could commit
i agree with the others .. the thieves deserve to have the whole world thrown at them
please also pass on my thoughts to your friend

[paddywak]

I know just how your friend must feel, maggie the same thing happened to me a few years ago. There was also a case in the local rag a couple of Christmases ago were the groundsmen at a local cemetery caught a couple of *** stealing wreaths, it turned out they were selling them on at Sunday markets. If I remember rightly they got 6 months apiece and according to the gossip one was quite badly hurt when he fell over a headstone trying to run away.

[DTCwordfan]

the Judge said that it was a very grave offence and they should be stoned as the public was cross. No, they deserve the wrath of him upstairs if there is a him upstairs.
