Chartwell Posted May 2, 2007 Share Posted May 2, 2007 Keef - I have friends who live in Exeter and have been over to Bovey Tracey a few times and it is truly stunning.

Chartwell Posted May 3, 2007 Share Posted May 3, 2007 It would take a very clever burglar indeed to trace all of our addresses and find out who we really are from the scant information placed on the forum...Anyhoo, my house is protected like something out of Mission Impossible!
