om...
just locked meself out and didnt have the cash of £57 for a locksmith,no
windows open to get through but managed to get in...will have to buy a new
letterbox now though. :-( good job key was in the lock inside.

Assuming it was a euro cyinder you might not have been able to open the door
even if you had a key, often a key left in the lock on the inside stops a
key inserted from the outside from unlocking the lock.
