I KNOW I will upset the whole forum posting this but I really feel for Tanaka here.
I just think that Tanaka's very upset with being robbed to be honest and I have a feeling we all would be! Then logic sometimes goes out of the window and perhaps things are posted in "inappropriate" places and people start taking things personally?
I have tried to say before on here in the past (I think), its ok saying that you don't need to lock your doors in Arillas and you can walk safely at night alone as a single woman in Arillas etc etc BUT at the end of the day anyone can walk into Arillas at any time and commit a crime.
It could be a fellow holidaymaker (from any country) , a refugee , a vagrant ANYONE at all.........
I have had disagreements before about this subject matter when I used to go to Anaxos every year in (Lesvos), and the same was said about there , how NOTHING could possibly go wrong. Well it did when a lady and her husband were "approached" in a violent manner by some Albanians on scooters and basically asked to hand over their money.
I am just trying to even the argument up a bit here thats all, theres not a place on the planet where you can be 100% sure of your personal safety and that of your belongings .............
That all said we will be returning as a family of 8 (ranging from 19 months to 78!) next year so I think that explains our feelings towards the place. I feel as safe as I do anywhere in Arillas .......
I may be playing Devils Advocate here and end up regretting this post BUT its posted now
