Top takeaways from our final 'Coffee with a Cop' for the year:

- Women, make sure your name and phone number is written inside your handbag. If it's ever stolen this will help with retrieving it.

- Insert a spy hole and chain on your front door.

- Build lower fences on your property, not higher ones. This helps your neighbour keep an eye on your property.
