Ha ha like that
Not intending to piss on the OP's Strawberries (as it is still a very good quip) but I recall it was used originally as a gag about why Concorde crashed in to the hotel. You young uns have a lot to learn

I’m glad it’s not just me that turns the water off when we go on holiday.
Last time we went away (bearing in mind I always turn it off following a leak about 5 years ago) the wife put the dish washer on which then beeped for 2 weeks as there was no water feed.
Why on earth would anyone put an appliance on when you are leaving the house for two weeks. The fridge-freezer and some wifi lights are all I would leave on. Last time we went away (bearing in mind I always turn it off following a leak about 5 years ago) the wife put the dish washer on which then beeped for 2 weeks as there was no water feed.
If the burglars are sitting outside your house for hours on end to see that the lights turn on and off, they'll also notice that nobody has entered or left the property, and will probably have noticed that they haven't seen anyone moving around inside. They'll also be well aware that people of a certain age have lights on timers.
But that's probably not how they'll scope a place out anyway...

Ha , I was working in a house the other week and the owner who lives on his own sets a radio on a timer system to turn on at night "to ward off potential burglars". Place was like out of a time warp, nothing worth stealing in there anyway.Eg CRT TV's etc. Bloke was an ex copper also.
His radio?SCEtoAUX said:

In Sainsbury’s yesterday, she is telling me something across the aisle, so I indicated I couldn’t hear, so she shouts, pointing down an aisle,
“I WILL GO DOWN FOR DOG TREATS”
Quite loudly, which amused me, and a few passers by....
I assume you have a dog.“I WILL GO DOWN FOR DOG TREATS”
Quite loudly, which amused me, and a few passers by....
I did suggest she at least holds out for chocolates.

We were recently on Holiday in Aberystwyth where we found a good pub. My wife was on her 3rd glass of wine(danger zone) when a young couple came in with a sheepdog with three legs. My wife loudly said look at that poor dog its only got one leg. I said no it has got three legs. You know what I mean was the reply. Couldn't make it up!

Just before we left to go on holiday, I turned the water off. Wife told me not to as "it would stop the fridge freezer from working"
Bless.
Now make up your mind! Last week she said:-Bless.

Left the house to go on holiday and turned off the water under the sink.
Wife: "If you turn the water off, won't that break the fridge?"

Fortunately Mrs PR is sharp as a whip, if she was "slow" I'd not be inclined to boast.
