As you may have all guessed already, I don't give a pair of foetid dingo's kidneys about the possibility of burglary when I'm away. If I want to go somewhere, I go. Or if SWMBO wants me to go somewhere I go, but perhaps I just repeat myself.  Of course, I have, just recently, resolved any potential problems by not having a home to go back to, but I assure you that's just a one-off until I do it again.

I, on the other hand, know that the onliest folks can even *find my house are insurance salesmen and Jehovah's Witnesses. AnnaS is slowly coming to realize the same.

Just on general princples I don't think putting a list of attendees on the Net ahead of time is a good idea.
A list after the fact would be interesting.
My attitude about pre-publication is : why take the chance?
I have no worry as there are three police officers I know well who live in our close-knit neighborhood, and the Chief of Police is an old and dear friend. Plus the tenant I have is not to be trifled with and the neighbors on either side and across the street watch the house anytime I am gone!
So unless Capital Kiwi is the head of an international burglary ring .... Hmmmmmmmmmm !!! ???

Head of an international burglary ring? Don't I wish. Or rather, I wish I was the head of a successful international drug smuggling cartel, because there's probably more money in it. Of course, every burglar who lives on the planet and has access to the Internet is scanning our site on a regular basis, just looking for an opportunity to catch us napping - at Ann's place. And given the inherent stupidity of most crims, Ann's place in Michigan is the one they'd attempt to burgle ...

Any burglar who breaks into my house next June and is confronted by this sorry lot, all tumbled together in a massive bad hair day in the early hours after a couple of nights of linguistical mania deserves what he gets.

After all, few of us know what more than a couple of the others look like. If s/he was quick enough on the uptake they may not only get to burgle the place, but a couple of days' free board (and boredom)?

those guys can duke it out over who sleeps in the bathtub-- i think an air mattres in the pool would be more comfortable-- even if a bit chilly.
i'm sure i'll bring along my queen size futon, and if the night is chilly-- i'll invite some warm cozy soul to snuggle up with me for warmth. Kids are best-- they are little radiators, but they are all to often squirmers, too.
