Well...as you use the term "telly" and "kettle" I can assume that you're a Brit.
But...here in the States (or at least the one I'm in) after your ex has moved out he/she has no legal right to be on the property or enter into the premises.
If he/she does so this is now considered a burglary or a criminal trespass at best. Also a larceny because the TV and the tea kettle are your property and not his.
I'd call the coppers and have him knicked. Did I say that right?
LOL...yep...you're in the UK. The "love getting pissed" was another giveaway.

I am sorry to say that you are being a push over, regardless of the relationship between you and your ex, he has no right to come into your home and take your property without your permission.
In some cases you can get a restraining order placed against him which would have him arrested if he come near you or your property.
I suggest that you need to talk to him and explain that things are diffrent know and you have to make a new life for yourself, he can either like it and be there for you as a friend or simply deal with it and move on with his life.
He cannot force you to do anything you do not want to do, the only power of you he has is what you give him.

Sounds like he is very jealous of you. Don't know how your marriage ended. But he sounds like he fill with angry, hurt, and got the green eyes monster within him. Then again, he could be mad. Cause you are moving on with out him.
If you had gotten the stuff, after you had move from the home. He has no right then to come in and take them. I would had call the cops on him. If you don't won't him to come around, and he pose as a threat to you and your kids. Then go and get a EPO out against him.
Then again, if he don't pose as a threat. Then you need to talk to him. Let him know, whatever ya'll had before is now over. That only thing that binds ya'll is the kids. That he needs to get on with life. Go find someone or go find a new hobby.

Your Ex husband is just a jealous fool...... If I were you I'd change the locks on the doors. He is not allowed to just walk in and take things, he no longer lives there, and what the heck has your new relationship got to do with him......If he had have been a better husband in the first place none of this would be happening.
Give him a shock, and send a solicitors letter to his home, asking him to replace the goods he stole, and if this behaviour continues you will have not alternative but to take out an injunction against him coming within 20feet of your home.
That'll scare the pants off him.

He left the house 5 months ago so he's got no right coming in and taking anything. If he's got a key you should change the locks and report him to the police. Does he expect you to lie down and die now that he's gone. You're entitled to make a new life for yourself with someone else if you want to. What you do is none of his business and the sooner he realises it, the better.
Good luck and don't take any crap.

You ex is an ***
Men sometime have a hard time letting go when the relationship is over
Now depending on weather the stuff is payed for jointly or gifts to one or the other is the next thing..
I would change your locks and if he is taking things go see your lawyer and find out what elsa you can do..
Dont let him run you cause he will continue to untiil you stop it ...

NO he cannot do this, he no longer lives there therefore he has broken and entered (even if he has a key, he still has to have your permission to come in). I had a similar thing when I started seeing someone else after I separated from my husband. First off you need to change the locks, then see a solictor.

Go to law about this, because this could be construed as theft, depending on your agreement. If he has taken things like this when you have two children, he is a total **** and a slimeball. CHANGE YOUR LOCKS; ask your new guy if he will do that for you. Ask at your local Police station, and they will b e able to give you advice on who to see....have him charged with THEFT.

change your locks. but, no he can't. don't allow this to continue, even if you have to call the police. the hard! thing is, is you have children. try to talk to him and explain that he cannot do this and to "think" of the kids too. talk without the kids around you. in your case, maybe on the telephone too. he needs to realize that it's time to move on, and he cannot just come in and take things because he's angry!
