definitely not stirred ! Plenty more where that came from.
It all seems very odd..... she goes on holiday, on the same day 3 men go into an area and a house with top security, and her staff don't know ! The men know which room to find the safe (I assume it wasn't lying on the bed ) and they've gone in 50 mins.
All that springs to mind, is relating back to my in-laws, many years ago. They had an inventory done for insurance purposes , less than a month later they were burgled. Those responsible, knew the layout of the house, where to find the most expensive items, and the best way to enter and leave. The family were at home and the dog didn't bark. They knew where the dog slept, and went in from the other side of the building from across the fields at the back. It was only a 15th century cottage with a couple of extensions, so you can imagine how small.
Police reckoned they probably sprayed the dog with something to make it dopey and also that the items would have probably been out of the country by the time the police had been called in the morning.
So ,clearly professionals and maybe this job at Eccleston's is on similar lines.
She will be well insured, and the £ has gone up against the dollar and euro. ! Happy days ..
