Another one for the wall of shame. This is the reason there were no eggs left yesterday for anyone else. They thought by parking on the road and covering their faces they would get away scot free. Wish i had a video of the shock on their faces when we showed up to their lovely

We meet plenty of lovely people at our gate but…. For the 2 years he has stolen 100’s of eggs. And we have never been lucky enough to meet him for a chat. Please retweet and make him known🙏.#dunnesfarmeggthief #dunnesfarmeggs

@tomdoorley Yep you caught us… Well done. Because we have nothing better to do than to stage robbery’s. No garda involvement because it’s a waste of time. And a waste of their time. Nothing ever comes of it. However, they don’t like being shamed.

@biggusdicus Some of the larger robberies we do. But there is more satisfaction showing everyone who these people are that walk amongst us!! Unfortunately it’s quite a regular thing and we have an armoury of pictures of dishonest people that will be on show for the “wall of shame”.

@billy_dorney @tomdoorley Yes and they get a slap on the wrist and then continue to rob. Also doesn’t matter if you are from the moon. Stealing is stealing and deserves to be called out.

@ShaunaghG @tomdoorley Of course Irish steal, and every other nationality for that matter. Makes no difference to us if you are from mars, stealing is stealing. We asked for curiosity, and only answered a question of why we put Romanian words In our hash tags. We aren’t enforcing anything on that.
