Yeah.
They'll nick everything else, but the door will still be there when you get back......

People on my street use to leave their backdoors open all the time, but then someone tried to get into my house, and my next door neighbour found that someone had been walking around in his house while he was at work.

Do you mean unlocked or actually open?
If it's just unlocked, I'd be fine... living as I do in the leafy tree-lined suburb which provides such amusement to my fellow Scots .
If I left it open:
a) It would get PURE BALTIC cold, by the way man, so it wid...
b) The place would be overtaken by squirrels.

Yes, but on a chain and then the safety gate must be locked. and the side gate must also be locked. There is also razor wire above the side gate and most of the garden wall.
So techinically: yes.

No, sadly. Mainly because of the aforementioned pikeys, and being overlooked by a block of flats. However, I am still hoping that Father Christmas is going to give me a patented Canine Defence Unit.

You can turn your back on a person, but never turn your back on a drug, especially when its waving a razor sharp hunting knife in your eye

Can I be the first to lower the tone and recognise the immediate double-entendre here?
My back door is firmly locked, BTW. Two mortis and two conventional locks with ironing board jammed up against the inner handle. You'd think it was rough up Leeds 16, wouldn't you? It ain't that bad. The odd chav on a scooter now-and-again is the worst it's got. Must be the fact that Weetwood Police Station is just across the road.
That and the fact that I'd break every bone in any f**ker's body that got into our house when my little girl was there

Living at the very edge of the centre of Antwerp, I've let my front door wide open by accident a couple of times
So far no-one ever abused my stupidity on that matter
And my backdoor wouldn't be a problem at all, as you only can get to that one through our little gardenlike thing (to small to be a real one actually), which is bordered by walls of about 2.5 metres and on the other side of those walls you have the neighbours, so no troubles there

If someone is entering my house the person will finds two cats who will just ask for food.

Don't know how she'd react when we'd get burglars though, think she'd probably try to lick them to death

Don't have a backdoor since I live in an appartment, but I've learnt my lesson when at my old address they broke in and stole my wallet.
They left the front door wide open and all, woke up from the cold (it was November, a good old real COLD November).
Glad it was just my wallet. Glad they caught him too. And very glad they caught me on the trial when I was going to smash his skull right through his spleen down till his arse. What with me being a rather calm person in normal circumstances, I was afraid of myself at that moment.
Nowadays, the front door double-locked whenever we leave or go to bed. Takes one second to do and saves you a lot of worries.
IZ.

I can imagine what would have happened to him on the trial if he would have stolen and sold your entire record/cd collection.Izzy HaveMercy wrote:Don't have a backdoor since I live in an appartment, but I've learnt my lesson when at my old address they broke in and stole my wallet.

I'm just glad we've got decent neighbours now(on one side anyway). The previous ones were responsible for having a son whose hobby was breaking into houses. Including ours. We got back from somewhere to find the latch had been dropped on the front door. Let ourselves in round the back and thought no more about it (we'd just moved in so it was impossible to tell someone had been rifling through stuff). It was only when I noticed that the plant which was by the back kitchen window was now on the floor, said window having been forced, that the penny dropped.
Then we noticed some vouchers had gone AWOL. Which was mildly amusing, as they were all book tokens
No back door antics round here. Except when we're actually in the building.
