I have been following this listing on E-Bay since last week.
http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/CARAVAN-560-EX...d=p3286.c0.m14
Please, if you can, keep your eye out for this 'van. It could be anywhere now and seems to be very distinctive.
Thanks

Another very sad story about a caravan going missing. There is more of this than most people think. It has been going on for years. I have even heard of one being craned over a 6 foot wall by an electric crane in the dead of night!! Invariably this is done by "Pikies", also known as "Didicois". A true Romany would not stoop so low as they prefer to keep to themselves and do not countenance "Travellers" and the other forms of low-life, who have no respect for other people, or their belongings. Even when the police know the perpetrators of these crimes, they are reluctant to act for fear of reprisals. I had a car stolen by the local travellers and, so far after four years, no compensation from the criminal compensation board. They even threatened one of our care workers saying they would be back for their caravan, having already attempted to take their car!

I do hope they get their caravan back with everything intact.

All the best, Peter.

Just in case any one asks..It is not my 'van, just a family local to me.
