Farm Diary

Why are there only a couple of cars patrolling at night? Why is it that Surrey for example is much more active and has a very different approach? Why is West Sussex intelligence systems not compatible with Surrey? Are all intelligence systems developed independently?

How can this be an advantage when people are starting to leave West Sussex due to being fed up with the amount of crime now taking place?

This time the thieves not only helped themselves to numerous tools and bits of expensive kit from the workshop, but stole my brand new chainsaw from the garden shed and broke into our house.

They stole a digital camera, Lorayne's handbag (credit cards, mobile phone, driving licence, money, personal belongings etc :) and in my office they hit the jackpot!

Behind the door is my gun safe, and the keys were in my desk; fairly well tucked away I thought. Having gone through every drawer in the desk, they found the keys, and took a five-shot semi automatic shotgun, and a high powered .243 rifle complete with telescopic sights and bi-pods. They opened the ammunition safe within the gun safe, and made off with the little (luckily) ammunition I had.
