A few years back I was trying to find a cheap flight to the US. It was bucketing down outside and had been for a few days it was about 2 am. I heard a noise outside paid no attention as I was busy on the computer. Most scum are not likely to be out thieving in that weather? Every now and again I heard the noise again and each time louder. Eventually the noise got very loud like someone trying to kick the wall down. At the same time I found a very cheap flight Manchester to San Francisco clicked on it and ran out with a *******. A cow had rolled down the hill behind my house and lay there with a broken leg eating my tomatoes.

I spent about 3 hours searching for the owner as the old lady who owned the field it was in wouldn't answer the door. Eventually I found him and we had to wait till the vet came and staggeringly put it down with an injection. It was beautiful Lincoln Red and I have a big freezer! The farmer and the NFU bloke came round and asked me if I wanted compensation. Didn't bother. Although I have been using his apples for a while so some compo.

When I checked the flight, I had booked the wrong Manchester airport. I had booked Manchester in the US to San Francisco. Only lost about £10 but annoying.

Just thought not quite what the thread was about! Basically the rule is if you were scared enough you will do anything and you should make sure the police know you were scared very scared. And of course say nothing till you see a solicitor. By then you can gather your thoughts and make sure you get the facts corrects.

We might not be allowed to fight an intruder. But the dog is so im told. Its an old law a dog can protect his territory sadly most dogs mine included would happily be stolen too. Hes anyones dog lol.

I grew up in a rough council estate and as a kid would follow the older lads around they was all low criminals opportunistic theives. The naked man stories ive heard from them freaked them out and they'd proudly joke they wouldnt mess with him. All of them would run burglars are not nasty people ther sly and fox like the wolves are hunting drunks in town centres for human targets presumably from watching crime watch anyway. None of the older lads I tried to hang around would rarly fight each other never mind a stranger and when they did fight they'd get bats or stuff but still talk the situation down.

Im only 5"6 and I wouldnt be scared if I heard someone in my house I would put my phone on video record and take a big metal magg light. Creep up hoping theyve kept the lights off. Then bam shine that beasty light into their eyes whilst recorded and shout them out whilst ther blinded. If they come at me its on cam and the torch is heavy and hard. Trying to get them out or letting them go only after a clear shot on phone. Ide hope not to injur in anyway as I would play the deppeesive card after on him lol.

But my next dog will be as much as a pet as my beloved staffie but a german large breed trained properly and very territorial.

Male dogs protect territory Females protect family. My dog is more of a cat that cant be thrown either.



What I would be worried about is a break down our home being prepared with food and devices and others wanting them. I can think of a ton of ways to attack a house but not so many to defend it. If you hurt them and they give up they'll most likly try to burn you out. How could that be stopped? Whilst everyone's out pabic buying or looting mesh up the windows and nail the lettrr box shut. They'd be able to pull any sheilds off.

Im at the point of having young kids so leaving the house wouldn't be possible nor do we have a car that worrys me. Stuff burgalars there all most likly zombie looking and aching from drugs anyway. The lowest of low council scum the pussys they are the average burgalar. Unless you have a masion and be a millionaire I wouldn't worry too much.

Shout prison rules and bang all the way down you might just catch sight of their feet leaving a Window.

I have a strategy, it's not written in stone, nor can it be, this scenario has too many variables, everything about it depends on those variables, being specific is not possible.
