Where I live (semi-rural New Hampshire) lots of people don't even lock their doors. I think you could leave your wallet on the front seat of an unlocked car most days and nobody would take it.

So - trying to understand how my shovel was taken -

Scenario one: someone on my street goes out to do some gardening, realizes he doesn't own ...[text shortened]... ake that guys shovel, that will really annoy him!" I can't see this as plausible either.
Scenario three...

Two weeks later:

" HOLY S$%#... thats where I left that damn thing!"

Some numpty stole my wheelie-bin last week even though it had my address plastered all over it in paint, If you find your shovel can you check if my bin's there too - thanks.



Sorry to hear about your cat. 🙁

Thanks Noodles.

Maybe someone had to borrow it quickly to fight off the zombie next door. I think shovels are good weapons against zombies.
Have you checked the Winchester Arms?

Sorry about your cat.

I find this very strange!

Why was the shovel stolen? Where is it now? What did the thieves use it for?

Is it a coincidence that the cat died and the shovel went missing the same day? Did the thieves in fact infect the cat with cancer to get a hold of the shovel?

I guess we will never know, however this matter needs to be thoroughly investigated!

The cat died Saturday. I last remember noticing the shovel on Wednesday as I mowed the lawn. So probably not the very same day.
