We had an attempted break in five years ago at our cottage just after we had moved in - thankfully nothing was taken only the back door damaged, but it was horrible to think what might have happened! Take care and just hold on to the thought that most of us are honest and decent.<br />Jo xxHesta Nestahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03260523918707092137noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8308715619105248833.post-87538964656244021352010-05-20T19:24:39.847+01:002010-05-20T19:24:39.847+01:00Hello Steph,

Lovely photos of the woods, you just cant beat woods in springtime, that lovely earthy/garlicy smell. Harry still brings sticks home after his walks (thats Harry the 17 year old not the dog!!)so the boy-stick thing must stay with them forever.

I was vaguely aware of a couple round every isle, or so it seemed to me. The woman came really close and stretched up to the top shelf for something. I thought it was odd at the time, but it was Christmas and very busy and eveyone was fraught. When I got to the till to pay, I realised that my purse wasn't in my pocket. Similtaneously, a member of staff appeared at the checkout with my purse which had been found by a member of the public in the ladies. Empty of money, naturally. So they got their shopping on me and I had to go home empty handed! No plastic card in those days. I felt sick for days as I had lost virtually a whole weeks wages.
