Is it reasonable to store a pram in a cycle shed

If they offered to let you have it back, then why the need for the email accusing them of stealing it and threatening to go to the police?

And on today's episode of dramatic over reactions.........
So by removing something from a bike store that wasn't meant to be there you went full retard and accused them of stealing it. Do you maybe think there's a more plausible reason for removing it.

I'm glad you got your pram back, but @vanandjuanunited is right. Behave better in future.

Probably happened after he sent the email

no, it went missing. I gave it some time and Had a look around.
Emailed them the above and they then admitted to taking it and said they will get it back for me.
You missed the first step or 2 in that, where you broke the rules and then were surprised that someone acted in response.

So as suspected, you accused them of stealing it without any proof they actually had anything to do with it.
Glad you got it back in this instance, but to be honest you'll tend to get better responses from people if you approach them more amicably to start with (by all means go full Rambo if they start playing games and you're sure you're in the right).

Maybe it was a bit harsh but at the end of the day it’s the same as towing your car away.
I will chain it up next time.
it’s a huge empty space. There are 4 bike storage rooms each can hold 120+ bikes with only 20 to 30 bikes in each.

Yes maybe I should have been nicer
Have you got permission to leave it there now?
If not, the situation will surely escalate?

I'm sure nobody will object to the leaseholder relaxing their attitude and allowing the bike storage areas to be turned into general fire haz.... I mean, storage areas. Fires are so 2017.
Why not just say to them that it's rather bulky to leave in your flat.
Even better actually, say you don't want to be making the floors throughout the building dirty by wheeling the pram to your flat, and the sensible thing to do was to park it in the big storage rooms that are available.

That email sent by the OP is embarrassing.

Hopefully you will get your pram back soon, and can then put all your toys back in it and stick to the rules next time.

After your email they'll happily take bolt croppers or an angle grinder to any lock you put on it.
