"and anybody that wants to know my version of events, then il only be too happy to oblige"




us tell us what happened,and how you come to have a nicked pair of ladders.easy

[Ryan @ Transparent, Carlisle]

i bought them off a lad that offered them for sale

he was about mid 20s blue jeans grey hoody. unshaven.

I never considered they could of been stolen. But looking back at events, perhaps i acted in hindsight. Im not one to look a gifthorse in the mouth

and thats about it re: the 'actual' 'getting' of the ladders

Many years ago when i worked for OCS we had a ladder stolen after a few months we spotted it on a building site so the boss reported it to the police and they did not want to know, they said they couldn't prove that the builder had stolen it and he might of bought them from someone and therefore there was nothing they could do despite the fact the ladder was stamped with a serial number and had OCS carved into the wood on both sides of the ladder!

  Ryan I think has been unlucky to be caught up in this he just did what any one of us would have done : he saw a bargin and went for it nothing more,
years ago I had a d ;Double 16ft taken off my van in the west end of london
cant help thinking I would have dealt with it ask questions if it sounded dodgy
I proberly would have just taken them back,after helping get up from the floor
There is one thing I cant stand is stealing from hard working people like us!

who ever tried to brake into house would have a terrible shock knifes Guns
and thats just from the action man

Just read this post and I think its a bloody shame that 2 good friends have fallen out  over something that they could have both been the victim in.

What a lot of old women you are!!! George Formby you said you already spoke to this guy in the street. Why on earth did you not sort it out then?

My wife works in a hairdressers this is how they might sort out a problem.

hi all

i've just noticed this post and i've been trying to work out exactly whats going on!

by the sounds of it (unless i am mistaken) the ladders are now back with their rightful owner. I think all parties have learnt a lesson and unfortunately the only person that has profited is the crooked middle man.

i hope that bridges can maybe be rebuilt - we are all self employed trying to make a living and dealing with our customers and bringing in the business is difficult enough sometimes without falling out with each other.

it was a horrible situation by the sounds of it and i think we would all of reacted in a similar manner - i just hope it didnt affect the work being done and the money coming in!

Good thing he ( the thief ) didn't steal anything else (re Wayne Bridge v John Terry), we'd be into the 100,000's of posts by now!!!  :-*I'm with Team Ladder!
