I asked him, "did i give you permission to touch my trap? Why did you steal my trap? And did you hav permission to be on the farm! He went as white as a ghost!! LOL I presume you never reported it to the Old Bill. You'd have to prove an intent to permanently deprive which would be difficult. Nice one tho'. Quote Link to post
