Interesting read. Like how certain points were explained.
Thought saying about hiding stuff when trouble came near, was a good idea, but he did say to hide most of it anyway. Digging the garden, and all that.....on the to do list (among 100 other things).
One thing I'd push for more, using higher level buildings to get better view points. It's crazy, but most people don't look up when walking. So you can hide in plain sight, on top of a building. When I was in Bedminster, that's what I used to do. Great fun, but also helps your balance....when your life could depend on it.

You are right that most people don't look up but you only need one to id you. Then they can watch and prepare. Just make sure you pick the right roof and it isn't overlooked by everyone else.

I'm not a cat burglar. I wouldn't steal from a cat. Might steal from a dog though haha.
I was on the roof, initially, out of curiosity. SD came round and I was showing him the roof and the amount of space available to check out. Was really cool, but I think jumping from roof to roof, over walls, and stuff like that, made SD think.....he's going to die up there haha.
