Hi all
Had a visitor last night he came round the back of the house climbed up onto the vestible twisted the security light up to face the sky broke open diesel cap on car (did,nt get any diesel) wen,t round the side of m/home broke open water cap (not checked to see if he got any water) then climbed up onto roof via bike rack where he ripped of two sky-lights roof covered in scuff marks like of black trainers.He laid sky-lights back on maybe he was going to come back? Just a pity he did not go inside as we have movement sensors and they would have set the alarm off.
At the end of it, all that damage and he got nothing.
Spen,t all day just trying get things fixed and talking to police:Angry:
Well as they say it could have been worse.

not long enough
As above, grubby little gits, we had a brand new caravan jemmied to steal a £200 TV cost nearly £2K to repair. After that I left door unlocked on our own back garden and hoped they checked the door before damaging again.

Then we had a hose cut on MH to steal diesel, spilt most of it on ground and cost me £200 to mend plus more diesel

Good luck with your forthcoming hassles

hope you can get a cheap cctv camera and catch the bleepers at it.

Glad they didnt get away with anything and yes there is the possibility they may come back, especially as no alarm went off.

Good luck with the repairs, hope whoever it was gets caught soon.

diesel-maybe

Hi all
I think the person/s was really after diesel and when they did,nt get any the contents of the m/home looked good. Just back from Luss at Loch Lomond every thing is o/k with the m/home so that,s good, a nice peacefull W/end in the pouring rain helps to gloss over the damage,now getting ready for some time at St Andrews roll on:thumb:

sorry to hear about your troubles lots of scum bags about, when we were renovating a new factory we kept getting broken into and plant and equipment stolen, so I asked pc plod can I put a dog in the yard at nights.
Only if its in a compound and on a lead, it will be in a compound a 4.5 acre compound and yes it will be on a lead but a bl**dy long one !!!
Cant do that says mr PC so the following weekend me and 2 mates sat in a van in the factory building with 2 Alsations and some wooden friends. About 1am we heard a noise outside, didn't need our wooden friends as Iv'e never seen 4 guys run so fu**ing fast in all my life with the 2 dogs in giving chase, I have to add that these were trained guard dogs and as such stopped the chase when told. Never had any bother after that.

Hopefully, ten minutes after they had caught the little darlings……

When we were having trouble with the Neighbour I got a Security light that took a Photo when triggered, the little sim card could hold 80 pictures, cost I think, from memory, was about £80
