A couple claim a fast food-scoffing builder fled with more than £14,000 of their money after hiding McDonald's wrappers in 'unsafe' walls that must be torn down.
Lisa Gillibrand, 32, and her hubby Kit Wong, 39, claim they first paid the self-employed trader to complete their garden extension last March, initially handing over £9,070 for supplies.
Kit claims he then began a three-month game of cat and mouse where he was forced to repeatedly chase the builder and only a small amount of work was completed.
