Timely reminder about making it obvious...

That you are away from your villa...

People who are easily identified seem to make life easy for the would-be burglar by announcing in this forum that they are not here... OK, you may be
simply responding to a request from someone to bring something back from the UK... if you respond with an offer then it's plain to all the low-lives out there that you are not here... this could be a big mistake...

Just think about posting on this publicly viewable forum with details of your current whereabouts...

Sound advice Groucho. My children and grandchildren are always telling me that I am "Out to lunch" and often "two sandwiches short of a picnic" too. Keep safe and well.

I only offer when one of us is at home in NC and the other in the UK! Sound advice. Didn't a footballer get burgled because he posted photos of him and his wife on holiday!
