Ye Gods whatever next..it's a pity there isn't a ferret in there..but that would be very unkind to the ferret.

So instead of trying to catch these Scum Bags they are blocking the post boxes inconveniencing the ordinary people. Easy Option...

Thanks Nanajacqui.

You are right too admin. The majority have to suffer for the sake of a minority of scum bags.

Blocking them off is not the answer. The pair will just move on to other areas.

jathbee,
They won't if they are in Strangeways. The world is knackered.

I would think that with CCTV. drones etc. they should catch them. Put some kind of a tracker on the mail even. ( James Bond style)

I've got the couple on CCTV along with a video of the couple stealing from another Post Box provided by another member of a group.The Police have been invited to view but not been in touch & this was over a month ago

pity they can't put something inside so when they put their hand in it blows it off.

They open the box just the same as the Postman opens it,so blowing their hands off not a very good idea

my comment was aimed at someone who puts their hand down the letter part, so put your spoon away.

My comment was that they don't put their hand down the letter part

No need to say it as anyone with an ounce of common sense would know you'd have to be a contortionist to put your arm in a tiny space & reach to the bottom of the barrel ....hope I've explained it easily for you to understand,I know you find it difficult

Observe from a nearby house and give a police dog a couple of minutes start.
