Valid point John, but I'd say it would be the stereos, TV's, DVD's and CD's that are more at risk of being broken in for! :)


This also crossed my mind, but I'm with Seanie on this one.

I know where you live John! Be afraid, be very afraid!

Only messing! :)

Seriously, I suppose it is a valid point alright to be honest. I've had a few people from the boards round my house to date and, to be honest, I wouldn't trust half of them! :wink:
