Yes it was a joke! I was mocking another thread and the media as that's how they sensationalise these kinds of things!

It does sound the same- we had the crime prevention officer round today an we are going to put additional locks on to obviously make it even harder to get in! I hope this all calms down an the police catch them or house prices will be going down!!!

We do yes. They picked the locks!

Thanks Miss P- we will be doing that from now on but never felt the need before as felt so safe! Would recommend everyone do the same although we were double locked so they do find a way! NowandHere- thanks for the feedback although the police think they were on foot and quick win opportunists. Good observations! Be safe x

Let's just say in such a manner for us not to notice until after we had been home for an hour- they stole money, jewellery and laptops- quick and easy things to carry. Aparantly it's common in the area and on the up- they are doing it at a time when people are out in the afternoon and then diving in quickly and grabbing easy things. Best thing for people to do is triple locks and alarms and be aware even if you are home alone in the day especially.

Hi all, Just wanted to flag a burglary on Dunstans road today - we discovered it this evening. Waiting for the police to arrive but please be aware there are thieves operating in the area! If anybody can advise if they saw anything out of the ordinary - we think it may have been c.4pm- we are on dunstans in between Goodrich and Upland road. Thanks
