No need to delete the thread, pinkfloyd. I've sent a message to tudlytops about their replies to your threads. Thanks for giving people the heads-up. I have relatives near Newport so this is something they might find relevant.

I see, No no I was just wondering how had this happened in the 2 areas or was it a mistake.

I'm all in favour of warnings like this

No, really, you didn't have to delete anything! I'd be delighted if you'd edit it back into your post. It was not trolling at all.

Hi
Firstly thanks for the warning.
Now, you're kinda short on detail.
Bogus caller, male/female?, rough idea of age? any7 disceranble accent? calling when? looking for what? purporting to sell what? driving what?

Any further info would be helpful

Thanks

Hi PinkFloyd34

Is there any chance of a bit more detail on this. I'm in the Murroe area and would really like a bit more info on what to look out for.

Thanks

Okay, I'm going to re-post what the OP had in their message, because I feel it's something that people should be aware of. If pinkfloyd34 wants me to remove it again later, I will.

just had a child calling to the door about 13-14 year old with a clip board selling lines, no heading on the top but a list of prizes, i asked what it was for and he said the travellers kids christmas party, i just noticed a jeep up the road that looked like he was waiting for the child, it didnt look to legitimite so i said no to him, just warning people to be on their guard

They were doing the same thing in the area (Newport/Murroe) last year - I asked too, was told by the woman it was for the "Childrens' Party" - no such thing. She wanted a fiver.
