Sorry to hear this has happened to you, it's getting more and more common now. Possibly you disturbed them when you got up to go to the loo.

So sorry to hear this Elaine...what a shock for you and OH. Hope that the police have called by now.....and that they may have some idea who these burglers might be.

Not a nice thought that someone have been in your house without you knowing and taken some of your things. Yes I agree about tougher sentences.

Take care Elaine.

Love, Sallie.xx

Ann, It was between 2 am and 5 am oh came to bed just before 2 and as I have a waterworks infection I was up 3 times in the bathroom during the night. They broke a small panel in the back door and used a fishing rod to get my keys off the worktop my daughter found their equipment in the park opposite my house. Yes I called the police straight away and cancelled my cards.

Oh dear...so sorry.what a shock.Its not just all the things you have lost,which is awful,but also the fact that someone has been rifling through your things..

I also agree that sentencing should be a lot harsher.

Came down to all cupboard doors open all drawers and unit opened. What have they got. Passport and £200 in Kunas for next trip to Croasia. Purse with £30, £10 on table for window cleaner plus mi bus pass and mi 6 euro bag from Espania. They also took oh wallet, purse and his laptop. My little old dog was in but she didn't bark, she rarely does these days but she was upset when I came down. Severed hands for stealing others property is a good idea and should still be applicable. On facebook my horoscope says drag out the suitcase, call the travel agent, it's time to hit the road. Must be a bad joke ,no money no passport not even my bus pass, won't get far will I ?
