I've done it several times for 'I'm looking for.........' type posts - and so many are saying things like - 'I'll be there in October' or 'just come back from 2 lovely weeks in our apartment, manzana 1 top floor' - it's like an open invitation just from this forum I know how many apartments are in your block, and roughly your address - I don't know Ayamonte - never been there - but if I did I could probably work out which is yours |

I spoke to my managing agent and she told me all the burglaries were on one manzana (I won't mention the number on this site) and the guy doing it lives there! Don't know if that can be verified?

Re: Break In
Not just the poorer parts, I've been all over and you very rarely see them anywhere. Drive across the border to Vila Real and you'll notice that nobody has them, not even the ones with anything "worth nicking"

I noticed that in the poorer parts of Portugal.
Maybe the poor devils have nowt worth nicking. |
Re: Break In
Just in case anyone worked out where our place is - I have hardened up the security. We have extra security locks replacements on the main doors - you need a smart card to get a copy made! - Added new tower bolts to the casement shutters to prevent them being lifted from their hinges and fitted a Cat3 (hardened steel) hasp and padlock bolted into the ground on the roller shutters. I know they won't prevent the determined burglar but should deter the opportunist. Cost around 150Euros - but worth it for the peace of mind.
