Sir,-Please beware of a man calling at your house asking if you want any garden tools sharpened. Say no.
On Wednesday August 14th, a man offered this service to me early in the morning.
I stupidly gave him my shears and baby' shears and money, then never saw him again.
I can't believe I was so nave and trusting. At 56 I should know better, but am vulnerable with back pain and pain from osteoarthritis in ankles and on strong painkillers. I can still manage a little gardening which I enjoy.
I hope that God blesses this man, sooner rather than later and he changes his heartless ways.-K Hyde, Howsman Road, Barnes.
