Before i say what happened i'm just putting it out there that I know it was my fault and i won't be doing it again but all the same i just wanted to warn anyone in the Bolon area in case they have elderly relatives or whatever.. This is the first time i have ever left my door unlocked..

I live in a first floor flat with my own front door, my stairs are behind my front door.. My mum called me this morning to tell me she was on her way over, she only lives minutes away so i went downstairs and unlocked my door for her so she could just let herself in, i then went back upstairs.

heard my front door open so shouted down 'hi mum' and got no answer so went to the top of my stairs and there were two random people standing at the bottom of my stairs that were about to walk up, they had let themselves in and shut my door behind them.. i asked what the bloody hell they were doing in my flat and they said they were delivering leaflets (they had no leaflets on them/no bags either) they then heard my mum pull up and ran off.

a man and a woman in their 40s.

That's very scary OP. I felt my heart rate rise reading that!

What on earth did they think?! I guess they were opportunists hoping to find the flat empty and look for a quick valuables grab or something.
