Lucky they didnt take the fridge. We had one stolen from a zipped up annex when we were in Perth a few years ago. Lucky my husband had drunk all his beer but they stole my bottle of wine, some steak and my brussel sprouts.

We saw teens run off with an esky from a friends annex late one night, and couldn’t catch em…So we left some “beer” bottles out for them the next few nights, in a strategically placed old esky…except the bottles weren’t filled with just “beer”….revenge is wonderful….:) 🙂 🙂 🙂

My son had his big blue esky stolen from Swansea caravan park a few years ago. It was right outside his camper trailer under the annex we were next to him and all heard nothing. We found an empty esky a short distance away
