Oh that's awful. We've had people nick plants from a community garden where there's a notice to let people know they can take herbs but 'leave enough for the bees'.I think a bit of sunshine is good for frugal living. (Cranky40)
The sun's been out and I think I’m solar powered (Onebrokelady)

Outrageous. The cheek of some people to take a plant from outside a front door.1

A friend also had a similar tree stolen from her front garden a while ago. She lives in a cul de sac in a small village so someone must’ve gone out of their way to take it. She was out walking and thought she spotted it in another garden, obviously she couldn’t be 100% sure but it was quite distinctive.I don’t have a ring camera or a photo of it. Thankfully it wasn’t worth much, it wasn’t anything great, the plant was plastic and the lights were only cheap ones. It’s the thought of someone purposefully coming down the drive to take it 😡I get knocked down but I get up again (Chumbawamba, Tubthumping)2
