I recently had some turf laid which needs watering every day so I left the hose pipe attached to the outside tap (which is at the front of the house). When I got up on Friday morning I found the tap had been turned on and the garden was waterlogged. I know it wasn't on when I closed my curtains around 7.30 Thursday night. Friday afternoon I returned home to find the tap had been turned on again - this time so hard that I wasn't able to turn it off (I had to get my neighbour to come across to do it for me). So I disconnected the hose and put it away. This morning I got up and again the tap has been turned on! I have put out a message on the village email asking whoever it is to stop. One neighbour said she had noticed the hose pipe running yesterday afternoon but assumed I was in the middle of watering the garden and had just put the hose down for a minute. I am now arranging for someone to come and put a lockable box around the tap! I am assuming it is someone who thinks it is a joke but can't say I find it funny
