My brother has all kinds of security devices and rituals that he (and now me too) follow. I have always locked the car doors, put the miscellaneous blankets, etc. over back seat purchases (even if I am going straight home), and ritually lock doors behind me (even having locked myself out sometimes). But your reminders are truly timely. Thank you for them, and stay safe.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14579989452439876698noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7341912661779864632.post-91996457961613731372017-12-13T07:58:05.487-05:002017-12-13T07:58:05.487-05:00Yes, it is a wonderful time of the year, yet there...Yes, it is a wonderful time of the year, yet there will always be someone trying to ruin it.

However I need to apologise as I sat and had a think about it. Here it is light by 5am and not dark till close to 8pm. Just recently our sons dog, a big black cross breed, started up a bark we had never heard before. Our little Jack Russell then used her,'There is someone out there bark'. I went to investigate and there were two youths running down the road. Our daughter had bought a solar sign, "Santa Stop Here", and this is near the front door. We think they may have come up to the house in an effort to take the sign. I like having a big dog with a big dog bark here in the house. Freddie provides us with a bit of extra security.
