Ieuan Rees, representing Banham, from Hermitage, said that although his client had previous convictions there had been a "slowing down" in his offending. That's all right then  Glad they caught, just wish more were caught in the act.

The slowing down in offending is that he maybe used to drive the getaway car at high speed but stealing caravans is driving at 50mph...... Phil

So reward them with a little holiday probably paid by us then let them out to start again.

my client had accepted responsibility for this theft and he doesn't seek to minimise that but he wasn't aware in advance of travelling that this was something that would happen." So the Caravan sales adressess in the sat nav and the Bolt cutters were for what???????????? 14 months is nothing given the heartache they could have caused

[QUOTE nothing given the heartache they could have caused
Well, all thefts can be nasty and unpleasant - but let's not get carried away here.
'Heartache'??
This was a newish van - and, as such, was *probably* in good condition (although they can be damp within months of purchase)
OTOH, there are hundreds of thousands of leaking caravans out there (many looking relatively new) which, if stolen, might well be a cause for celebration, rather than 'heartache!
I venture to suggest that there are many owners who, if their caravan was nicked, would do a joyful little jig before 'phoning the insurance company.
It's rather like flooded homes - time and again, we see TV images of householders heaping up tatty and worn out furnishings outside their flooded property - all of 'em telling the news reporter how "devastated" they are ('devastated' appears to be *the* obligatory word in these circumstances) when, in fact, you know full well that they are secretly delighted at the prospect of a refurbished home and brand new fixtures & fittings.
They know that they are required to say that they are 'devastated' - but it's often plain to see that they are, in fact, 'elated'..
What's more - if an adequately insured caravan owner really *is* devastated by the theft of his property, one can only assume that he/she has not yet had any experience of *genuine' heartache
