We do actually have a gun my dad has a license for, but that's well and truely hidden. They watched my house for months, watched my mum and dad pack their carboot to go on holiday, then watched me leave the house for a few hours, enough time to scarper with everything and there's nothing I could have done to prevent it.
My sister drove up from the south coast as soon as I managed to call her while my neighbour called the police and plied me with ciggies and tea, she arrived an hour later with her fiancée and stayed until my mum and dad got home at 2pm, my friend/photography tutor/driving instructor/blokewhatdrivesmetogigsoutsidetheM25 arrived an hour later in his Landrover Defender 90, my mum told him to get me out of the city for a few hours so he took me to a pub in the middle of the countryside for a few hours and we had a chat about what happened. I've come to terms with that whatever's gone won't come back (just jewellery and my laptop with photos of my Godson, coursework, portfolio and website work), everything's insured, the police have good leads, and I'm INCREDIBLY lucky they were not in the house when I got home. Ah well, life goes on!
