Please,please can I advise anyone who leaves a key in a locked door to think again.You are probably thinking I'm stupid for doing just that but trust me,it won't happen again. We came home to find our house had been broken into today. We have leaded light glass in our doors and windows, which I know you cannot break without much difficulty so that's not how they got in (they'd already got through a locked side gate). We believe they used a length of wood (pieces of broken wood were found on the kitchen floor) to reach through the cat-flap and jiggle the key from it's lock. It must have been very tricky to do but nevertheless they succeeded. We are fortunate in that nothing appears to have been taken and that is because they probably fled when the burglar alarm went off BUT please,please, take heed of my warning and keep keys away from doors when you are out.....even those back doors behind tall locked gates, that you think are out of sight and safe.
If my message saves one break-in, my posting will be worth it. Thanks for reading.
