Cinnamon Posted December 14, 2007 Share Posted December 14, 2007 Fred,thats terrible - you must all be so shocked Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted December 14, 2007 Share Posted December 14, 2007 Fred, that's awful. It's bad enough at any time of the year, but somehow it seems worse at this time. At least no-one was in the house when they broke in, so you and your family are safe. Someone tried to steal chookiehubbies motorbike last Christmas Eve, couldn't move it because it was chained, and had an immobilisor, so took all the bits they could, (mirrors etc) then took a breeze block to it instead.

BeckyBoo Posted December 14, 2007 Share Posted December 14, 2007 Fred that's awful. Sadly at this time of year the thieves get more and more bold as they know everyones out shopping and the houses are full of presents. Terrible that they caused a mess though, I hope you and your faily are OK. Is there anything you need to replace before Christmas or can it all wait till after? I don't know what else to say, burglars, particularly those that make a huge mess are beneath contempt in my book. Hopefully they will reap what they sow.

moochoo Posted December 14, 2007 Share Posted December 14, 2007 Oh Fred how awful. Let's hope the little devils are caught. It would be interesting to see if they've targetted your neighbours too. Theives rarely just try one house. Take care. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
buffie Posted December 14, 2007 Share Posted December 14, 2007 So sorry Fred. We had a similar thing happen when I was a teenager and we were on holiday. Hugs from here and it does leave you very shocked. BBx Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aunty e Posted December 14, 2007 Share Posted December 14, 2007 Oh poor you! We were burgled on boxing day once. Luckily, most prezzies were with us at parents house, but they messed up the place it made me feel really violated. I felt better after I installed a new burglar alarm.

Fabergé Posted December 14, 2007 Share Posted December 14, 2007 So sorry to hear about this Fred. It's an awful thing to happen to anyone. It just makes me SO ANGRY that someone thinks it's OK to take someone elses stuff instead working for it themselves. If I can't afford something, I'd prefer to to save for it or not have it at all rather than live with the shame of stealing someone elses. If I ever found out that anyone I knew had stolen, I wouldn't hesitate to shop them. My sister was burgled once & whilst most things could be replaced, they took our late mothers' jewellery which was heartbreaking. The saddest thing was feeling that a stranger had been through all her things. Hope the police catch them & maybe they might 'fall over' in the cells!

Looney Posted December 14, 2007 Share Posted December 14, 2007 Fred - poor you So sorry to hear this. My Sister in Law was burgled two years ago just before Christmas. The burglars actually unwrapped the pressies under the tree to see what was in them and then took the ones they fancied - makes me Hope you are ok.

little chickadee Posted December 14, 2007 Share Posted December 14, 2007 Sorry to hear about this Fred. This happened to me at Christmas once - got back from the inlaws to find a big knife in the middle of the living room floor, all my musical instruments stolen etc. They were probably really annoyed actually because I didn't have a telly/ video etc. You do get over the feeling of violation eventually but I know how you feel Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
