Just a question, were the cars in garages or on their driveways?

Nope.

Garage alarmed when I'm not in it.

House and garage alarmed every night.

House and garage alarmed if I'm working in the garden. House and garage alarmed if we are just "Out" If the alarm trips it rings my mobile.

I guess your car insurance is ok if the keys are taken from the house?

We are pretty bad at locking the house or cars... so I better make an effort me thinks.

It happened to a cousin of mine, keys nicked from the house while they were asleep and car stolen. Coppers found and recovered the car, called him to say "come to the station and collect it". He asked for the keys, was told he could not have them as they were needed for evidence against the villains! Got a feeling he only had one key for the car - Catch 22!
