You'd not be the only one to think that. I still remember that Gran in her (then) modern Council house wouldn't even consider the need to lock the door when 'popping to the neighbours'. Daren't turn your back now without locking and bolting, even when you're inside..... Same in Hunslet but then we had nowt to pinch if they had gone in our house they would have left us some money. lol
