Hi
I've already spoken with Willie. He's been the sweetest most helpful neighbour despite everything that's happened.He even called to say I could bath at his home if the need arose! A while back , someone was burning copper wires at his property & I brought it to his attention.He cannot , however , be held liable for anything that happens at his properties when he is not present. My case number: 599/5/2012 Regards Colleen From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of James Cowley Sent: 23 May 2012 01:03 PM To: Colleen Bester (CI) Cc: [email protected]; ONW Committee; Woodstock SAPS; Paddy Chapple; [email protected] Subject: [obsnw] Re: Hi Colleen Pity to note about the loss of copper pipe. Please consider to report it Woodstock SAPS via 10111 and kindly get a Ref number. SAPS needs to be made aware of the matter otherwise it goes under their radar, unnoticed or not concerned with trends as this. Remember to add Willie into all your emails concerning him as your neighbour, it is only fair, and gives him the opportunity to respond to the matters of concern to you.

My neighbour , Willie , came out to give me a hand turning it on (at this point , I ruled out naughty children unless they pushed weights everyday & had nails & screws for breakfast). Also , someone had tampered with the barricade I had set up at my back gate after a previous break-in. Yesterday I arrived home to find someone had turned off my stopcock again...I went out to investigate & found about 12 metres of copper pipe had been removed along the side of my house. Now the funny thing is , I have a gate with a burglar bar type fence ontop of it making me suspicious as to how the delinquents gained entry....... Which leads to another upsetting instance which occurred on Saturday morning.....I awoke to find 2 missed calls from my (helpful) neighbour.....when I went outside , I found a ladder in my property leading to the top of my neighbour's roof.I called the neighbour who said he had tried to reach me as he needed to work on his gutters...when he received no answer , he figured he could just go ahead , trespass & do what he needed to do.....As far as I'm concerned , this is cause for concern but I am not sure how to tackle it.The neighbour is the owner of a lodge which has been raided for drugs & prostitution in the past...& who is now showing all his lodgers how to gain entry to my property....Apparently this is not the first time one of his workers have accessed my property while I was not there...... I am seriously disturbed (never mind put out by the waterpipes being stolen) by all of this & wonder if anyone has advice.....
