Stolen Cauldron s

Feel free to talk about anything that you want.

There is an enormous clay one lying by the entrance of a field used as a car park in Polis ... has been there for over 25 years as far as I remember ... and no one would steal it ...

Honestly, the lawless occupied north is unbelievable :roll:

Why are they so desirable?


We are talking about the copper ones. Why desirable?? They do make nice decorations. I used to use mine next to the fireplace to store the wood inside. Now I have made a steel frame for it and a wooden top and use it as a side table. A lot of people tend to plant in them.

Unfortunately mine is not made of copper, it appears to be cast or wrought iron.

I can’t stand those giant pots, cartwheels, wheelbarrows, barrels, stupid elves, etc, that some people put in their gardens… such a horiatiko thing! :?

If it’s not natural what’s it doing in the bloody garden? A garden is meant to mimic nature not some bric-a-brac shed!

There's nothing like an old rusty 'mangalli' to decorate the garden. :)
