Sounds like an inside insurance scam to me. Who would go to all that hassle and expense for £10,000? Steal a car for god's sake.
Where are you going to run it? If wanted for a private estate, surely they could have afforded the asking price anyway.
Maybe it's a joke. I dunno.
Cheers weave :beers:
Doesn't even look like Thomas.
And in the original books, Thomas refused to wear a cowcatcher, and that's why the Fat Controller had to buy Toby! :D
Thieves also stole the toilet seats from the police station.
Police say they have absolutey nothing to go on.

Me thinks you know far too much about Thomas, George. A closet reader perhaps?

I have an excuse for knowing that particular story, it's a 3-year old son and a set of the original books...
That's right, you said you had the boxed set in the book review section a couple of years ago. Has Squidlet got them yet?
He's at the K&ESR http://www.kesr.org.uk/events/thomas-july (http://www.kesr.org.uk/events/thomas-july)
Cool! Great little clip, too. :thumbsup:
