I have a a rule i always meet people at my sons, as he is a townie and dose not keep any ferrets or dogs and that way i think it cuts the risk of things getting stolen,i know this may seem a bit long winded always meeting at my lads 25 miles away but has worked for me so far....as we all know our sport/lifestyles attracts interests from all types of other parties and i would rather be cautious than complacent and pay for it with the loss of my ferrets etc.
