I'm looking for a Mr Williams?
Discussion
Just had a chap knock at the door asking for a Mr Williams, very polite almost apologetic with a soft irish accent. After confirming I don't know a Mr Williams he says he will call on the other neighbours but in fact gets into a blue 64 plate Audi TT and is driven away by the driver.
Seems suspect to me so am I right to be concerned? I did make a note of the vehicle reg so is it worth a call to 101?
Thanks.

101 might take note of the reg and patrols can keep an eye out for it looking suspicious in the middle of the night.Seems suspect to me so am I right to be concerned? I did make a note of the vehicle reg so is it worth a call to 101?

what do they say ?........"report anything suspicious"
We get this at work sometimes.
They are usually just dirty lying thieving gypsies making excuses to come in the workshop and ask for Mr Smith.
It's just so they can walk in and see if there is anything to steal.
The excuses range from asking for a random name such as Mr Smith or Mr Brown or asking if they can 'borrow a spanner for a couple of minutes to fix their car'.
They are firmly told to leave.

For reasons of minor crime in our village I recently had a CCTV camera installed - it is trained on our front door and my car.
Had thought about it for years - recently discovered the cost was - in Chelmsford area - £350 total - fixed price - for one camera and the complete job - two hours max.
It will record and keep the results for 30 to 60 days - start at end and write over - so always a running total of minimum 30 days to cover our holidays.
Worth the cost for the extra peace of mind?
