We've just had our 5th break and enter in as many years, 2 in the last month.
I suppose you could say the area is not as affluent as some, doesn't matter really for whatever reason our house is a target. We are guarenteed to be out from 8am till 6pm, clearly the neighbours are not home, deaf or too scared to investigate. We've lost in the past, 2 mountain bikes, wallets, mobile phones, cash, jewellery, spare car keys, and this time just alcohol. We assume these were the same people that took our spare keys, and they were coming back for the car since the door into our garage was kicked in.
Coming home to smashed windows and a house turned inside out is really unsettling, especially for our poor little putties.
Anyway, we admit defeat and have decided to get the f*&@k out of dodge. We're going to sell up and move on... drastic we know, but it's not worth it. I don't have the time to lie in wait under the bed with a cricket bat. We should get a good price and this is a good excuse to move on up... or over.
