Way to go Ken :-) It was probably the same guys who did the first raid.
We're not allowed to shoot burglars this side of the pond :-( that is
unless you are over 70 and can act senile to fool the judge.........
The only reason that one of my burglars was caught was that he used his own
car, parked outside and carried the gear out of the house into the car
whilst my neighbour watched. She called the police but (as usual) they
arrived about 20 minutes after he left with the swag. Luckily the
neighbour wrote down the number of the car, the police eventually got round
to visiting his house and found nothing but nabbed him on the eye witness
statement.....
My house is now all alarmed up, as are the garages. I have placed external
alarms in the house which are loud enough to give burglars permanent
threshold shift in hearing. I would rather shoot them though.........
All the best,
