Not wishing to cause any alarm, but we feel we need to warn everyone – whilst we have been advised not to leave any valuables in cars at the top of Eggardon Hill, it seems Cogden Beach is also a target for car break ins.

This morning, two ladies locked their handbags in the boot of their hatchback and went for a walk along the beach – only to return to find the entire rear window of the car smashed and the contents of the boot removed. It seems likely that they were observed putting their bags safely away – but in any event, please avoid leaving anything in your cars that might attract criminals.

Best wishes to everyone – stay safe.

Harry, Dave and Peter.
