Re: Broken into


t seems to me that thieving junkies never get caught and if they do, nothing is ever done about them. It's all poor me, I'm struggling to feed a habit blah blah.

Easier for them to make life a misery for hard working people than to get themselves sorted out.

Re: Broken into


I'm sorry - it is a horrid thing to happen - I have to say the police did catch the two 14 year olds that broke into a house I lived in years ago. They were trying to flog some of my stuff outside a pub.

I hope that you manage to get the doors fixed and can put it behind you - it wasn't personal and you and your animals are fine.

Be angry for a wee while and try and move on.

Re: Broken into


That's terrible Elaine, I can imagine you feel pretty shook up about it too.

Thank goodness Bernie and Millie are ok and didn't escape.

I hope the police get some leads and can catch them

Re: Broken into


The police havent even arrived yet no surprises there eh?
I get more worried about the animals than anything else. Have my sense of humour back but it is all annoying and an added expense.
G is taking the day off tomorrow to get and fit a new door etc. He has already bought and fitted a new lock for the entry door sown stairs.

Re: Broken into


How awful. I know when it happened here my first panic was for the cats. Thankfully it was only Fifi and Balie at the time and they didn't bother wandering out of the wide-open front door!

Once I'd got over that, the physical sensation of feeling sick at having your own space violated took a while to subside.

Shocking when you have to make your home into a fortress just to keep the scumbags out (and validate the insurance)
