And they are just the recorded burglaries; we have been burgled twice without the crimes being officially recorded. Both times we were told that it would be impossible to trace the culprits, and were advised to just make our property less attractive to the perpetrators than our neighbours! We are now surrounded by an eight-foot high wrought-iron fence with spikes on the top, and all means of access are kept padlocked unless we are expecting visitors - you have been warned, ring first before calling!
