# It's getting a bit ridiculous
As if I wasn't feeling etchy enough after the talk of the recent spate of burglaries just north of us, another car has been stolen from our complex; this time our neighbour's.
When Ronwen's car was stolen a few months ago, they lifted the complex's electric gate off its hinges, and pushed it open. The gate frame was then reinforced to prevent anyone from doing that, so this time around, the bastards hopped over the wall, cracked open the gate motor's casing (with padlocked harness) and cut the wires, and simply rolled the gate open.
A stolen car isn't the same as a violent break-in, but I have no doubt that these people are also scoping out our flats while they're galavanting around our complex. Really heartwarming.
