So I had to get a locksmith, looking in the local Thompson Directory a guy in my street is one.

So tonight he came round and managed to get the boken bit out almost as quick as it went in.

He also only charged me £30 instead of £40 as I was a neighbour.

To tell the truth I would have paid £40. Now I know the house is again 100% secure I can sleep properly tonight knowing the rabbit can be fed and cuddled (Nieces orders).

It could have been worse and cost around £200.
Bet you were 'hopping' mad about that Hom3r lol!
Seriously though you were lucky to get a locksmith for £30, they usually cost an arm and a leg. Incidentally could you/your sister not claim on your household insurance policy if the charge had been £200?
