00:00 get loads of stuff stolen, all sorts of stuff. And the real
00:04 problem is it's rarely big stuff. Although I know people
00:07 who have had big stuff stolen, particularly the satellite
00:10 steering gear and that sort of stuff that they go, they go
00:13 Nick, because that's a lot of money. But it's mostly in little
00:16 bits, which end up by the time you do your, your, your
00:20 insurance, you don't get paid out for because you've got a
00:23 bigger excess than that. So it's all the gates are a real pain
00:28 and electric fence equipment and they go in dribs and drabs and
00:32 just keep going all the time. Because they can sell it. And
00:36 that that's, that's where the real bother comes is people are
00:39 willing to buy it. Even though we put all over and get our
00:43 postcode burnt into it and all that sort of stuff, as we do
00:46 with gates now, it's all there. But people will still buy them.
