Valli - :eek: as others said - how good your friend slept through it. A colleague years ago had the same thing. I think they hooked the keys from the hall through the letter box or a window and loaded the loot into their car and took it.
pigpen - :eek::eek: That is a horrendous list of things for one person to deal with.
Mumto5 - and breathe. I hate those people who sit and take notes of who is wearing what. Why should you have to keep buying new outfits?0
