Default Thefts from cars

Hi,

Just thought i would let people know,as its the second time i have heard this happenening.

People visiting Esuri have had the cars broken into at the commercial centre in town,if like us we go straight there from the airport to stock up,and have bags and personal stuff in the car.

We only bring carry on bags so they are normally out of sight in the boot,but just beware leaving cases and bags on show,one guy who we met had his laptop stolen along with passport and other stuff,which makes life very awkward,he actually moved his stuff to the boot but done it in the car park,so can only presume people are looking out for an easy touch.

And have just heard from our neighbours who are Dutch that they also had the car broken into,in May. Taking the appt keys as well as other stuff.

So be carefull and enjoy your visit,

Ken.

Good info...a lot of common sense really isnt it..

Being in/from Wigan you should know all about cars getting broken into and stolen...

I think my dads car got nicked from there twice...(of course it did turn up in the thievery capital of the world...Liverpool)..

Too much information, especially with pictures on your signature.
