Now how would u feel having your placed burgled and having the thieves drop u a note,well that was what happened to Co-Owners Phil Moran and Julie Pringle.
Three thieves raided a medieval pub,
accidentally flooded the place - and then left a
scribbled note apologising for the damage on
their way out. The grade II-listed building, which is one of the
oldest pubs in the UK dating back to 1320,
was left in a shocking state after the men
ripped the boiler off the wall to steal the safe. Co-owners Phil Moran, 51, and Julie Pringle,
had left the premises at midnight - just
moments before the crooks struck.
After opening the doors to their ransacked pub
the next morning, they discovered the
message on a worktop in the serving area
which read: 'Sorry tried to turn water off could
not find it. Hope you fix pub.' 'They'd ripped the boiler which was on top of
the safe off the wall which flooded the place -
it was a total mess.
'They must have used some of our lifting
equipment to shift the safe because that was
missing too - they took everything they
possible could.
'Then they had the cheek to leave that note
behind after all of the damage they caused.'
The men also got away with a Theoben
Evolution.177 calibre air rifle which had a
walnut stock and a Simmons Whitetail
telescopic sight.
