Riddle of `missing`gallons of pool water

Police were today investigating the disappearance of thousands of gallons of water from two Blackpool pools.
The water was drained from the pools at Moor park swimming baths in bispham.over the weekend,but the circumstances are a mystery to the authorities.
An automatic alarm inside the building was triggered just before 1am yesterday with security staff and police sent to investigate.
no sign of a break in or vandilismcould be found from the outside of the premises so the area was secured until this morning.
When staff arrived for work they discovered the empty pools.
Apolice spokesman said an investigation had been launched with forensic experts combing the area for clues.
the pool remains closed all week.

ummm something fishy going on there :rofl38: :rofl38: :rofl38: :s_gupjump police still looking for wet patches

Re: someone has nicked our water
 

You got any idea how long it would take to empty, and how many tankers?

I bet the pools cracked or the drain valves have been opened on purpose.
That or aliens took it.

Re: someone has nicked our water
 

when they refurbished our pool, they hit major complications. You'd have thought they'd have noticed before, but the pool had been cracked for years, there was several thousand gallons of water behind the pool walls.

Re: someone has nicked our water
 

on a serious note i just cant understand why anyone would want to sabatage a swimming pool though

Re: someone has nicked our water
 

nor me, and it's cost a fortune to whoever runs it, the water is metered, then there's the chlorine thats got to be added, then it's got to be reheated. Plus emptying it could have caused cracks. You don't normally empty a pool unless it's needed. Some real mental people out there cherokee, and it's actually quite worrying. If I had kids, I'd be very worried, no wonder some parents don't let their kids out of their site.

What is the point of nicking flavoured water if its no good for ice cubes. :confused:

Had a thought maybe some one told them it was a wishing well full of water with a plug to empty so as to access the cash. :eek:

Re: someone has nicked our water

Re: someone has nicked our water
 

BURGLARY:- illeagal entry into a building to commit theft or other crime.

On that bases the police might be right heaven forbid. So if the catch this "artisan" then how on earth do you value what they pinched. :confused:

Re: someone has nicked our water
 

think they will go through the water meter .. cant think of another way

Re: someone has nicked our water
 

It's the intent to permanently deprive someone of their property, which this is.

They can't get it back can they.
