Super Joe,
why dont you put another washing basket out side, but put some strong glue under the handles, he wont be jumping over a wall with a washing basket glued to his hands.
This guy what a looser when you go to the costruction sites i would print hundreds of copy's off and hand them out to everyone, he will proper loose face like a village fool.
Kendo.

This is twice now. He is getting more brave as it seems easy. He could show up with friends and start taking appliances. Better bring the hammer down now. Pete

Steve, its the back outside Thai style kitchen, so he's hopping over our wall into our land and taking clothing etc that has been left out (think the girls are bringing it all in now and just leaving towels etc)
Just been round the two camps I can see from my house and came across about 10 others building sites, there's tons of building work going on from Soi 94 across to Soi 102, masses of un-developed land. Plus saw about a dozen tin houses where it looked like the people didn't work, sitting around, chickens running about etc.
Got real bad stares in every site I drove around, and ofcourse every builder has a balaclava on nightmare, I wouldn't have recognised my own Dad if he was there!!
Wife's getting copper round later who has helped before with something and does seem to put some effort in, will offer him a few quid if he can catch him.
Worked out exactly where he is getting into the land next to us as the walls on that land are too high to get over without a ladder and nothing there that he's been using as step up, so know his way in and out. Gonna put 'picture in picture' thing on tele for next few nights with that back camera where he comes in on, so we'll be able to catch him if we got his routes right IF he re-appears in next few days.
Why dont you get the cop to hide in the yard and then jump out on him, let the cop earn his few quid.
He will be back for sure, is he a perv or is he stealing for his poor family what ever his motive, he is very brasen, i think it will be near on impossible to find him on construction camps, you as a farang stand out he will spot you before you spot him apart from all the workers wearing balaclavas a lot of Isaan people look very simular.
Kendo.

There's a couple of us, plus some of my wife's Thai family/builders who all want a go on this one over next few days. Guess the copper will drive round the sites, shops, vendors etc to see what he can find out.
If after a few days we don't see him we're thinking of putting a makeshift notice board up, right where he comes over our wall with a load of pics of him and something written in Thai about "the old bill are looking for you mate" Should freak him out a bit.
Plus I got this plastic cobra which looks as lifelike as you get, will put that somewhere strategic just to see him jump on cam. Small things please small ........
I would rather he was caught then scared off because that might only delay your problem for a month or so, i would want closuer on this.
Are you o.k with other Thai builders/ friends getting involve you dont want some thing really bad happening in your back yard, after all its your family home.
I would let the cops hide and jump out on him, then you can parade the weirdo in front of his camp and this will send a message to any other opertunist thief that dont mess with SJ, his security system and his swat team of keystone cops.

Seeing as there is not much chance he can read English, you could have some Tee shirts made with “I’m the laundry thief” printed on the front and then leave them in your laundry basket every night!
