So this year obviously hasn't been crappy enough we've just woken up to a burglar leaving our house. We disturbed him but still taken off with a fair bit. I feel physically sick. Material things can be replaced but the thought of someone been in my house terrifies me.

I’m so sorry to hear this @SarahGard83....what an awful thing to have happen to you! I hope they manage to catch the b@st@rd and retrieve your stuff for you. Sending you lots of Tattle hugs xx
Thank you. Chances of catching the scum or retrieving our stuff are slim but none of us are hurt and that's the main. Just shaken up and upset
So sorry to read this, hope you are all ok x
Sending you love. I can't imagine how that is. The feeling of violation would be absolutely terrible. Are you all okay?
We got an alarm and cameras last yr and it makes me feel safe especially if my husband is away.
We're all ok thank you. Just shaken up and angry. Police have been but they said it's extremely unlikely that we will get our belongings back or catch the person responsible. Currently sat downstairs as they've taken our house keys so we have no way of securing our house until a locksmith arrives in the morning
Oh, I am sorry, so scary. Keep an eye on Gumtree/Facebook Marketplace for your items. When thefts happen here, often they end up being sold online.
Thank you. I'm already checking and got friends on the case too
That's awful, I can't even begin to think how I would feel in that situation. At least you're all OK though. Definitely look into alarms/cameras to make you feel a bit safer. Fingers crossed you get at least some of your belongings back.
Frustrated as we had planned to get a camera just before lockdown then money got tight so it kind of got forgotten. A few neighbours have CCTV so will knock later and see if they caught anything.
Absolute scum of the earth. I’m so sorry you went though that xxxx
And now I'm panicking in case he had covid and has touched goodness knows what. I can't clean as police coming back today and we've been told to leave everything as it is. Hubby thinks I'm over reacting about the covid thing. Maybe I am 
The saving grace is that you aren’t able to touch anything yet if you have to leave it as it is. Once they’ve been, you can get scrubbing if it will make you feel better. Chances of getting anything or them having it is VERY low. Thinking of you xxxxxxxxxxxxxAnd now I'm panicking in case he had covid and has touched goodness knows what.

Thank you. I know I'm probably been completely irrational. Head is all over at the moment
Gosh no wonder. I would be exactly the same.xx
Oh Sarah that is horrible. Such an awful thing to happen to you. I hope you managed to get cleared up ok and the insurance bit is straightforward xxx
@SarahGard83 so sorry 
Seen petty crime gone up quite a lot round me, people are desperate. No excuse for it though

I’m so sorry this has happened to you. There are some scumbags in the world
I just keep crying. Finally got the kids back off to sleep. Not sure what I feel today to be honest. Feel a bit numb
So sorry to hear this
can't imagine how scary that must have been for you xx
