Little heads up from a friend of a friend. Always be a safe as you can, keep your eyes peeled and lock stuff securely.

“Mate of mine had his garage done today. Bold as brass daylight job. Well planned – had been watching their routine and did it over on the first day back at school, took all the adult bikes and power tools and drill bits but oddly left the kids’ Islabikes. It was a well-secured garage, would have taken a big bolt-cutter to snip the lock.

Apparently there’s been a spate of similar jobs in the area so if you know anyone in Portsmouth tip them off.”
