A Leicester Welcome
Home again.
Lovely holiday about which more later. But home to discover that my house has been done over again. Just what you need after 40 hours awake and 26 travelling.
Seems that my new back door was just kicked in by the bastards but then they couldn’t get through my kitchen door (yay for locks) so they managed to wangle open the kitchen window (high up and small) and get in that way.
But it seems that the only thing they nicked was the telly. In fact you can almost give them kudos for that because it’s a big telly and the only way out for them was back the same way they came in IE through the high up and small kitchen window. At least they had to work for their spoil.
But it is gratifying to know that the police care deeply. Pete phoned them at 11 in the morning and they’d be there in “90 minutes”. We were called last night (at Pete’s) at 11.15pm to be told that they were “on the way” so we headed there again. Waited ’til 12:45 and came back to Pete’s again with them still not having showed up.
Annoyed a bit. Hopefully the window co wot did the back door will repair it (or preferably put in a securer one) as it’s been there for less than 1 year. If they will then I’ll not bother with insurance this time. Not worth the extra premiums just for a telly.
Welcome back to Leicester.
Sigh.
