"So sorry. This happened to me in 2021. I am still traumatised because I actually bumped into the thief as he was coming back inside the house to get more stuff."

@king_tattie was happy that nobody suffered injuries while also saying:

"I don't think they know how much golf clubs are worth."

@doosh716 wrote about a similar experience to Martha's:

"This exact thing happened to me some years back. They gained entrance through the window. We were more than seven at the time and no one knew when they came. We woke up and saw an empty wall."
