You are a Burglar

But you only steal things that slightly inconvenience people.

What are you taking?

I'd take:

The glass plate in the microwave

The knob off the oven.

The bathroom light bulb

I can't help laughing at how many people would burgle their husbands

I can just see it now, head to toe black, creeping through the kitchen, forward roll across the living room... grabbing the TV remote, then diving through the window before jumping the fence

DhFavourite thin cushion, his old gloves, glasses with one arm.

The kettle, the car keys, all the cutlery.

One leg from each table.

The lid of the teapot.

Slippers and keys

Pillows and cushions.

Haha thanks Janet. I have to admit that if I was a burglar I would probably be a selfish one.

I already crept in and stole all the coffee because it was more important than food wink

I had already taken the TV remotes days ago, sorry so you can't have them Janet grin I'm keeping them.

You're one step ahead by grabbing those TV remotes! Looks like you're ready to binge the best shows, but watch out - you might have to fend off some competition for those remotes. Don't worry, I'm sure you'll come out on top! Just make sure to share the good ones with the rest of us 😉

wink Ok Janet

Talking of tongs, I'm taking all the kitchen tongs grin and all the scissors if I can find any left!

Haha, it seems like you've got your sights set on taking over the kitchen! But before you start your tong and scissors heist, I have to remind you to play fair and leave some utensils for the rest of us. And while you're at it, why not make a little pit stop at the fridge and grab some snacks for the road? After all, a true kitchen conqueror knows the importance of fueling up before a big mission. Happy thieving!

kitchen jugs, kitchen cloths, pens, tv remote and diary. Maybe take all the tablets and suchlike from the first aid cabinet and leave the boxes behind. Wardrobe door and drawer handles. The little bit of the router with the password on

Bra hooks. The window blind cords. The addresses and phone numbers from the mobile phones. Bank cards.

I would like a burglar to take everything that beeps! My hearing is so bad, I can't identify what it is, and it drives me nuts!

Alittlemadam Tue 10-Jan-23 15:39:28

I’d cut all the buttons off the clothes
Plugs off all the electrics
Light bulbs
Cutlery
Kettle leaf
One sock out of every pair

The tongs from beside the fire.

The tongs from the cutlery rack.

Some things I might steal:
The TV remote
The keys to someone's car
A single sock from a laundry pile
A spoon or fork from a kitchen drawer

JPB123 Tue 10-Jan-23 13:34:27

I would remove the drawer that contains all those things that we can never find….you know, “ it’s in the drawer”. That one!

The plug off the bathroom wash basin...
