A British TikToker has shared footage of the moment she asked her neighbours to return her stolen garden furniture.\u00a0<\/p>\n
The video by @propertycouple\u00a0has been seen by over 3.3 million people and has divided opinion on how viewers would handle the situation.<\/p>\n
In the clip, she asks for her garden furniture back which she claims her neighbours ‘keep taking and putting in their garden’.\u00a0<\/p>\n
She explained ‘My neighbours have stolen my garden furniture, so I bought a set of four (chairs), there’s two there, the other two are through there.’<\/p>\n
The property TikToker shows viewers the two chairs remaining in her garden and two identical ones in her neighbours garden, which can be seen through a gap in the fence.<\/p>\n
How would you have handled this? \ud83e\udd37\ud83c\udffb\u200d\u2640\ufe0f l#property #propertycouple #stolen #theif #neighbour #awkwardmoments #awkwardsituation #neighbors #ukproperty #gardenfurniture #askingforitback #askingforitback\ud83d\ude2d\ud83d\ude2d<\/p>\n
She exclaimed ‘I can literally see them in their garden’ and decided to approach the man who lived there.<\/p>\n
Shouting across to him, she said\u00a0 ‘excuse me mate, I noticed that my garden furniture is there, can I have it back?’<\/p>\n
‘It’s just that I think someone from your house keeps stealing my garden furniture. One sec, I’ll just grab it.’<\/p>\n
He then quickly passes the chairs over the fence to her and she adds ‘there is some that the old people that used to live here left, that I was trying to get rid of, but I don’t know if you want them?’<\/p>\n
She wrote on the screen ‘I offered him some other garden furniture that came with my house when we bought it that I don’t need but he said no.’<\/p>\n
The man continues passing the furniture over and the woman replies ‘I appreciate that, thank you, if you know who it might have been?’<\/p>\n
However, the neighbour responds ‘I woke up one morning and they were outside and I was shocked myself.’<\/p>\n
She thanks him and clarified that she got her four chairs back, adding ‘let’s see how long they last, before asking viewers how they would have handled this.<\/p>\n

One commenter joked ‘Only in the UK, yeah mate you can have your stolen chairs cheers, ow thanks,\u00a0 would you like to have these old chairs so you don’t steal mine again!!!?’<\/p>\n
Others wrote ‘Very cheeky, you were a lot calmer than I would have been’ and ‘I wouldn’t be so nice. So cheeky and didn’t apologise’.<\/p>\n
Another eagle-eyed viewer said ‘It looks like they might\u2019ve nicked the other neighbours green chair too. There\u2019s an identical one on the next garden down,’ to which she replied ‘Omg I never noticed that!!! Good spot’.<\/p>\n
Someone else joked ‘such a British attitude excuse me sir may I have my own furniture back,’ meanwhile another wrote ‘I would just go and take it back’.<\/p>\n
An American chimed in with ‘Love that you were so polite about it!!! Don\u2019t know where you\u2019re from but here in NY it definitely wouldn\u2019t have gone that way’.\u00a0<\/p>\n
