About a week ago, someone walked into my yard, got int my car and stole everything worth stealing from it; including my ashtray.
I guess they would've tried for my steeo as well but luckily the one I have is one of those inbuilt stereo's so that you have to take my entire dashboard off in order to get at it. The bastard even took the time to check what I had in the boot but unfortunately he didn't steal my laundry which if youve been eading my posts, you know Ive been driving aroud with it for the past few weeks). All this, while I was watching TV in the living room with my signifigant other, barely 20ft away from the car. If my windows wee open, we definitely would've seen the bugger.
Yes I did find it distubing that I lost some stuff (including a very, very expensive handphone) but more so that the arse was brave enough to do it full well knowing that we were so close to him. I was under the impression that my neighbourhood was a safe one, apparently I was quite wrong. Yes, I did leave my car unlocked, and my brother-in-law was quite vocal about the fact. I understand that doing so was just inviting trouble, but my car was parked in my porch and my garden is walled off. This bugger climbed the wall and wandered around my yard! I just have to ask how often do I have weirdos wandering around my yard in the middle of the night? Hell it wasn't that late even, barely 10pm.
It's a frightening thought that we have thieves in the neighberhood so brazen as to eter a persons property while the person is still there. What next, am I to expect being mugged on my way to work in the morning?
