Default Good start to the day :(

Got burgled last night while we were asleep.
Took my wallet and the keys to the cars.
Took the wife's Focus ST but didn't take my lads car as that was in the garage which is deadlocked (although only have one key...).

Scary that this happened whilst you're asleep. The only saving grace is that hopefully the insurance will sort out the car and any damage to the house, but can understand being mad about it.

So sorry to hear this, just glad you're all safe. Material things can be replaced, eventually.
There really are some scumbags out there.
