I also had to smash in my mums front window when I was young- she lost her keys. Actually I had to stuff myself into it. It was a tight fit i can tell you. My dad pushed my feet and I went in head first.
I've also smashed in her cat flap. Again when I was locked out. I cut myself doing that and bled all over her carpet.

I have fitted CCTV and alarms that are remote controlled and will send text messages in the set up zones. I even get a text and email if someone presses the door bell complete with picture. I can even talk to them remotely from my mobile or listen and watch my place being robbed.

Anyone else had any back door issues?

I haven't but I was forced to smash my dads backdoor in when I was 16. They went on holiday and I was locked out. I made a right mess of it.

Only when I was in prison. And you would think backdoors in prison would be secure.

What about your back garden - do you keep it neat and tidy or is it rather overgrown?
