    Thought this was gonna be a thread about the classic drunken prank of moving someone's tree during the night and seeing so they notice the next day.

    Surely any self-respecting burglar uses Google Street View to plan his crimes?

    I Thought burglars were on facebook,nowadays,
    someone posts i,m on holidays in spain for 2 weeks,
    there house gets robbed.
    maybe its not a good idea to post ,my house is empty for the next 2 weeks ,on fb.
    SOME people are just morons, they damage trees ,
    planted by the council ,
    its like graffiti,or litter,
    its pure stupidity.
    nothing to do with burglary.
    everyone under 30 seems to be on fb,
    this includes criminals,drug dealers etc

    Theres no exam needed to join a social network.
    as posted above,
    a burglar could get alot of info from fb,
    rather than looking at a tree.

    Never heard that one before. I'd say it's not true, but I'm just going out on a limb here.

    One I have heard is this - when you see a pair of runners hanging out of a power line it means that it's a regular drug deal location. I doubt it though. It probably just means some poor kid has had to hobble home shoeless.

    I know that was definitely true about 10 years ago, i dont know if its still the practice.

    I think that I shall never see,
    a poem lovely as a tree,
    for it will indicate to me,
    another opportunity,
    to commit a big burglary.

    (Yeats...possibly)
