Hi there
My name is claire i live in duquesa village with my husband and 2 children I am very new to eyeonspain so wasnt really sure where to go on this you asked for more info on break ins so thought i would post a note on hear after i heard about the site
Yesterday at 17.30 my oldest son was going to his friends house and forgot to shut the main door from the stairwell. which i wasnt aware of .
I heard a bang and someone had thrown a stone at the patio door over the terrace from the bottom swimming pool, I looked over the terrace (my youngest son came for the nosey) and a man was trying to talk to me an Spanish (not knowing alot of Spanish I didnt understand him) but thought nothing of it really. he just gave up after about a min and put his arms up as if to say it didnt matter and walked off.
about 1/2 hour later I was looking to put my singlasses in my bag which was on the table and couldnt find it searched everywhere.
It then all finally clicked into place the stone was a distraction to get me onto the terrace while someone else came in to get the bag.
It had 90euros in 80gbp my passports (we had just been to Gibraltar) and my driving licence
I have reported to the police today in Manilva which I have a copy of.
I hope this helps you and I just want everyone to be aware of this as the guy must have walked directly behing me to get the bag which does make you feel extremely ambarrassed and stupid.
