    Woke this morning to find my two flowerpots from the front of the house decided to skip off in the night! Didn't even think to bring the plants they contained with them!

    Reckon they had a couple of "volunteers" aid in their escape, probably a prank or maybe even a sinister serial flowerpot abductor. So if anyone sees a couple of large pots, (black shiny ceramic with a ribbed design) dumped anywhere in the vicinity of Charlesland Wood/Court, can you please PM me. They're of sentimental value & I miss them dearly!

    Cheers. :(

    I have been admiring those pots for years and I just couldn't help myself.
    In my haste to get away the plants just fell out...

    Beanie & Barney. Close though.
    Here's a pic of one of them on his birthday (he's a bit taller now).

    Nice pot.

    I believe there is a flower pot smuggling ring operating in the area.
    They're not cheap.

    The smuggling ring have roots that go back to the gun-running days through Kilcoole during the first world war. :rolleyes:

    Nothing new here at all, travelers do same thing every summer around greystones and then call to houses and offer to do nice gardens and sell stuff back to other folk in different areas. Watch out for white vans and take the reg if you see them. Damn filthy pikeys, keep a bat handy too

    I find your post to be very stereotypical and unfounded.

    Please use fact when posting in future.
