I HOPE the little girl whose daddy got her a new purple bike for Christmas is grateful and proud of him, as he helped himself to our daughter's bike from our garden during the early hours of Christmas morning.

My nine-year-old is very upset and unsettled due to the fact someone has trespassed on our property.

So thanks for upsetting her Christmas. We will be passing the CCTV film to the police at the end of the month unless the bike should find its way home.
