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.

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! 

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?

 

Watch it. I intend to make another trip to the UK next year. I'll bring someone from Australian Master chef to sort you out

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

Cool! Great little clip, too.
