This morning when I got back from doing the horses, I found we'd had a break-in. Back door kicked in, I ran to mum-in-law's bedroom, fortunately she is OK, but all my jewellery collected over 40 years including my dead mum's engagement and eternity rings, my engagement and eternity rings, and 25th wedding anniversary ring and ear rings, and mum-in-law's engagement ring which was in my jewellery box. Also brand new LCD 42in TV bought just before Christmas with a 26in LCD taken with all the remotes and scart leads (so we can't even plug the old ones back in). My collection of Royal Crown Derby Paperweights collected over 20 years was also taken - they stripped a large cushion cover from the settee, left the cushion, and used the cover to cart everything out. Bedroom ransacked and all my underwear thrown around.
Mum thought she saw someone looking thru her window (we have a bungalow), but as she is virtually blind and can only make out shadows with one eye, she can't be sure. Thank God they didn't hurt her.
This was done in broad daylight during 2 hours that I was out. Police were excellent and arrived within 20 minutes, followed by Scene of Crime Officer who found footprints in some mud near the chicken runs. No fingerprints because they wore rubber gloves (the officer said there were prints of Marigold gloves)
Waiting for someone to come and make the back safe now
