Scum bags. hope they get what they deserve.

But a good warning all the same, as most insurers will not pay out for theft if there is no sign of force or violent entry.

One reason why I like the yale lock.

Cool Re: Opportunistic thief warning!

As a bloke of mature years I regularly get up during the night and have often heard someone try my door. It doesn’t bother me anymore and if I do hear someone I switch on the lobby light to show that someone is up and about.

Being aware that I do forget things now and again I have a routine before going to bed and if I don’t follow it exactly it nags at me in the head as I lay down my sleepy head and stops me from going to sleep.

My routine? The washroom, which includes the toilet, is but a yard away from my front and only door. The very last thing that I do before actually getting into bed is to attend the toilet and as I do so I check that the door is locked. It always is because during twilight time I lock it or during those long summer evenings the door gets locked around 7:00pm.

Re: Opportunistic thief warning!

One tale that amused me was, a mate of mine bought a fancy house on Queens Road Accy, it used to be a vicars residence and was famous for being 'screwed'. Behind the back door was the 'under the stairs bit' where the meters etc were situated, he put an old fireproof safe he'd picked up for a fiver in it, it didn't even have a key,one would be thief broke his toe trying to pinch it, then the succsessful ones chucked it in the canal and it sruck out for all the world to see, complete with all their fingrerprints.
