It’s believed the home may have been broken into between Wednesday, August 29 and Sunday, September 9.

There`s always been thieves…..& probably always be…….if you value your possessions…..DON`T MAKE IT EASY FOR THEM.

Hard when you`re on your own & are isolated……..may the Karma they create catch up with them.
