Leave the milk out, cancel the papers - forget it!

I am interested...

Do you disguise your plate when driving, or have it encrypted at the DVLA ?

No but my number plate does not have my address or travel plans

The last folk who broke into my place tidied up, took the bin out and left me a tenner on the kitchen table...

My next door neighbour gets informed that anyone he sees in my house or back garden needs shooting.

 

[pappajohn]

I'm not at home at the moment. Should be back Monday so you have a few days to rob me .

I'm away at the moment too..... Or am I.
Feeling lucky?.... Want to chance it?

 

[ambulancekidd]

If anyone is so desperate they want anything from my house, I'd give it to them.

Well if you pass me your address please, I'm looking for a new TV, washing machine, DVD player & a few other odd's n ends.

Huh don't know what all the fuss is about, every time we go away I hid my collection of Rolex, our Kruger Rands , the couple of kilos of Diamonds that Aaron Banks gave to me for safe keeping, in a safe place.
No one thinks if searching for loot in a greenhouse! Sake as houses innet?

 

[simbadog]

I always hide my Faberge egg collection in the microwave when I go away!

The trick is to change your cars regularly and always have more than 1

No one could ever keep up with my changing vehicles.

I've only been back 4 weeks and I've changed motorhomes and I'm on my 2nd car lol

Ok if you have the money to do that, not everyone has.

 

[Northernraider]

Ok if you have the money to do that, not everyone has.

The 1st car cost 350 I sold it for 500 and bought another for 400

And the motor home I down graded for a 42k one to an 18.5k one

So not really a question of having the money lol
Its not hard

You can get IN, our house. But try getting out? The (hidden) Claymore mine(s) in the yard are set by illegal entry. And can only be un-set by code. You have been warned!.

You cannot do that ! Think of the damage if it goes off? Health and safety issues afterwards? God almighty- anyhow they’re illegal so there

I am so security conscious that I hid spare vehicle keys inside an old pair of Ugg boots at the back of a wardrobe in a spare bedroom.

We are currently moving house, guess who is going to have to buy replacement spare keys for three vehicles?

 

[Caztur]

We put our m/home into storage because friends used to ask us where we'd been as the van had gone. If they could see that, anyone could.

My neighbour asked me yesterday if I had enjoyed my trip away last week. But I haven't been away? Oh, sorry, thought you must have gone away because one of your campervans was gone for a few days. Err, no, it's been in the garage for a new clutch and wheel bearings - expensive trip!

We are presently away.been gone 24 hours and the wife gets a call on her mobile phone that she does not recognize. I urge her to answer and she does. A nurse called Phill says he's outside the house waiting to take blood and where is she. Margaret has both dental and medical stuff going on but says she is not expecting this and is not at home and not even in the country when she realizes she should not have said that. Panic calls to both son and daughter to alert the police and son phones the surgery to find out that they have mistakenly sent the nurse to the wrong patients address.

Panic over - there was no burglar ready to do the place over.

Knowing our luck the place will have been gutted by the time we get home and my Rolex collection and stash of cash will be gone!

Don't you carry your Rolexes, stash of cash & iPads in your MH, we do. We also practice our sad faces in case we need it for the Daily Mail's photographer.

I will place a de-activated .303 round with a short note in an easily found digital safe. the note will read "smile, you are on hidden cctv and the next bullet is heading for you soon"

Had sleepless nights over such things happening.
Then a friend said “isn’t that what you pay insurance for” Enough said!
Potential perpetrators are not going to be interested in photos, cards etc that have an emotional value The rest is (expensively) insured. Therefore I happily share experiences, photos etc on social media and to hell with the worry.

Forever telling the wife not post these details on her bloody face book page ! ditto about photos when away on holidays and how long we have to go to catch the ferry !
I have to keep an eye as insurance companies are in some cases invaidaing claims because you had advertised the fact house is/was empty !!

When running the building firm I went to several break-ins to quote and do repairs. A regular feature of these break-ins was the mess they made. In one case the intruder had taken a shit on the home owner's bed, just disgusting. Drawers ripped out of cupboards, breaking the runners was very common
