Returning from a week's holiday I was devastated to find my prize pumpkin missing from the front garden!
The pumpkin was nearly ripe when I left, the size of a football, and growing in one of the old recycling boxes. Looks like someone leaned over the wall and pinched it.
The stolen goods looked similar to this:
I'm quite flattered anyone thought it was worth pinching as I doubt it would have fully ripened after the bad summer we've had. I don't mind at all if someone's hungry enough to pinch it, but I'm rather worried my prize squash just got kicked up the street by a drunk.
Next time I will bike-lock it to the fence!
The pumpkin was similar to the one above, orange, with no distinct markings or distinguishing features. It went missing from the front garden of 140 Salisbury Road between Weds 29th August and Sunday 2 Sept. A reward of one bag of chocolate buttons will be offered for information leading to the capture of those responsible or the return of the stolen goods.
