Man tracks down and confronts thieves who stole his giant pink pony

It’s all very civilised.

THOMAS DAMBO BUILT a giant pink pony out of bits of excess wood and put it in a park near his house in Denmark.

He was disappointed to see that it was gone, so stuck a post on Facebook offering a reward for it.

Information was soon forthcoming, and he tracked the thieves down and confronted them on it.

What ensued was an entirely civilised exchange.

Perhaps this is an approach the owners of traffic cones in Ireland should take?
