.... that the back-crackers ministrations seem to be working a bit.

The numb/dead arms when I wake up in the night are fewer and less severe (sometimes just a tingle).
I am hopeful that this is going to mean that I can get my leg-strength back too!

I know, it is hard to comprehend as we lived in a fortress with armed guards and searchlights at night I had stuff nicked out of the back garden that they lifted over a wall!!
Here it is really for things like deliveries that they say happened but did not. A Yodel driver refused to get out of their vehicle because of my dog. I had to go and get the parcel from them.
It is difficult to change ones mindset when you lived in a high crime area for 19 years

I am the opposite as I often don't even lock the doors! I laughed at all the security the ins. co. wanted with my caravan when not only do I not lock it I also leave the key inside just in case I need to get into any of the outside compartments. The only thing I do not leave in is the red one which controls the hydrolic (sp?) steadies so they can't move the van and there is no way of getting it lifted.

The first day we moved in I fitted a steel barrier so the 90 was secure on the drive. That is my mind set. The neighbours all think I am bonkers (along with @doriz ) but it is difficult to lose those instincts. I hope to be able to relax the 'bolt it down' mentality but it will take time

Just how does he do it? My older dog, who does like to 'welcome' all visitors, never gets out of bed before 9am BUT today he asked to go out at 8am. This was just after I had 'phoned me neighbour, who I never see, to tell him that the tree men were coming to trim my hedging that sides his garden. Does Zebo understand what is said??????????????

He waited for them to come and then ran in to let me know we had visitors.

…the last crime reported where you live was in 1949 when someone stole a pig.

It wasn't stolen, it just hitched a ride in one of those (then) noo fangled tratters.

Keys are always in mine too, plus we've only just started locking the house door cause there has been
reports of people stealing dogs so the misses aint taking any chances. Horrible bastids.

We only lock the house when we go out.
Fenders not locked but 322 gets blipped and garage is locked most of the time (when I dont forget)

Still loads of stuff outside not locked and never had any problems.
Most of the summer we very rarely even shut the doors at night

Aylesbury is far worse. There were 5 murders within 300 yrds of our old house. For theft the police no longer attended, just issued a crime number. Vehicle thefts and from gardens was rife. We had a large planter stolen from the front garden, they must have used lifting gear!

When yer gorrit powered can yer tell us if it is silent int operation or hassa fan? Eye need a silent cctv recorder which is difficult to find at reasonable price.

Our Sricam is silent, I think, only makes a noise when you move its head round.
And being a pooter bod you'll be able to make it work. Unlike us!
