THE BREAK IN

This is how the buggers got in. Used a wooden pole to break open the window,
then bent the bar back. They stole the kettle and all the keys, which we later found
in the garden. The security company, police were great, the investigators added NO value
and by the time the finger print guys got to the house between the dew in the early morning
and the humidity during the day there was no evidence of any prints. Really peev'd at this on.
Both Arthur & I are convinced that this was an inside job!!!
The outside look .....


They were kind enough to take off all my pot plants and not break them, then used the stand as a ladder to get to the window, you can see on the second shelf how bent it is.

And yes we are now looking at better security at the house, to include outside passives and beams. Also spoken to the neighbours to see if we can get a common guard to watch over the houses on our road. Will keep you updated.

Hi Dionne. I stumbled upon your blog via Libby's. So glad that you have joined blog land. I am so sorry to hear about the break-in. It makes one feel so powerless, but I always say that everything is material except our lives. I have added you to my google reader, so will pop in here regularly. Oh yes, I love your photos in the slider at the top ... see you continued Doing Life's style. Hugs from Desire
