My husband stupidly left his van unlocked while working at a house in Southampton on January 9 and when he went inside for a couple of minutes, youths stole a new set of John Letters golf clubs with a Scottie headcover, and two electric drills plus a few other items. An eyewitness saw the youths but could not give chase.

The police have been informed and I am doing everything possible to try to retrieve the items.

The golf clubs were a much awaited Christmas present as was the Scottie headcover.

The drills he needs for his work and will have to be replaced.

Yes, he made a mistake but if any parent knows of the whereabouts of these items or have seen them at their home, I am happy to pay a reward.
