MAY I through your paper give a message to the person who on Sunday night at Lymm village stole my plant arrangement off the roof of my narrow boat.

Now that they have taken it I hope that they look after it and that it gives them as much pleasure as it gave to me. It may only be a couple of plants to them but to me it was my pride and joy.

Being at the lower end of the money scale I will not be able to replace it nor would I want to for not only did they steal my plants they stole my naive and trusting outlook on life.

Again I wish them well, but somehow I don't think their stolen trophy will mean the same to them as it did to me.
