"Three months on, and with no arrests or charges in the case, the main opposition People's National Party have suggested that some people now think there has been a cover up"..............................................:doh :

If it's a comodity, it's bound to be stolen.

They're just going to have to start nailing that crap down then ! :D

Or maybe putting some of those anti-theft tags on them.

Yep, that's the ticket. RFID tags in every grain of sand:rock:I noticed in the article that they have forensic scientists checking other beaches to see if any of the sand is being used. I never knew that sand had DNA:hmm:

I did hear of someone being charged with stealing a railway station once, but a beach is new to me!

"Like sand through the hour glass.....":D

I was born in andraised aorund Blackpool and the beach had signs saying it was illegal to remove sand from the beach. I spent a very long time shaking it out of my shoes before I left the beach:oops:
