Jeremy Clarkson has revealed that his newly-opened pub in the Cotswolds is being targeted by people keen to unlawfully pocket a memento from their visit.
The Grand Tour star opened the doors to The Farmer's Dog near Burford, Oxfordshire at the end of August, and in the months since, Clarkson has experienced firsthand the trials and tribulations that come with running a pub.
From haemorrhaging money with each visitor to juggling the demands with his own personal health scares, Clarkson has made no secret how his new business venture is far from plain sailing.
But grappling with the rigmarole of running a pub in today's financial climate hasn't been made easier by the fact that punters keep stealing Clarkson's glasses.
In fact, Clarkson predicts he's losing about "400 a week" thanks to visitors wanting to bag a keepsake from their trip to the pub.
In one of his latest newspaper columns, Clarkson made the shocking admission about his pub while simultaneously taking aim at the police and government for failing to provide enough deterrents to stop them.

Writing in The Sun, Clarkson began by bringing up the topic of shoplifting after hundreds of pounds of cheese were reportedly stolen this week.
After claiming shoplifters "will now nick anything that isn’t nailed down", Clarkson took aim at the police for their inability to prevent retailers from losing the £1.8 billion they did as a result of theft last year.
Mocking the introduction of politically correct training schemes amongst other questionable measures, Clarkson fumed: "The police can’t do anything about it because they’re all on a training course, learning why all old ladies are Nazis and why the Deputy Chief Constable of Derbyshire’s hair is so wonderful."
Turning his attention to The Farmer's Dog, he said: "Have a guess how many beer glasses are stolen from my pub every week? No, you’re quite wrong, I’m afraid. It’s 400.
"This means that on every day we are open we are losing 80, along with all the light bulbs from the lavatories and even the urinal traps."
The former Top Gear star went on to brand theft as "an epidemic and it’s everywhere".
"People are even nicking poppy collection tins and dogs and, as I reported a couple of weeks ago, the doors from your car," he added before slamming Prime Minister Sir Keir Starmer in a blistering sign-off.
Clarkson surmised: "And it’s not going to stop because there is no chance they’ll be caught and even if, by some miracle they are, there will be no punishment.
"Punishment would affect their mental health. And anyway, according to Starmer, it is the right of those who don’t work to take whatever they need from those who do."
Clarkson's no stranger to delivering scathing verdicts on the government over its latest moves, most recently targeting chancellor Rachel Reeves over Labour's new Budget.

The chancellor has implemented new tax measures on farmers when it comes to handing down assets worth over a million pounds to their loved ones after they pass.
Reeves has been slammed by a number of prominent figures in the agricultural sphere, including Clarkson and his Clarkson's Farm co-star Kaleb Cooper.
On X, Clarkson branded the government "useless" before reaching out to farmers directly by saying: "Farmers. I know that you have been shafted today.
"But please don’t despair. Just look after yourselves for five short years and this shower will be gone."
