Wednesday night at 8;30 PM i was closing my outside metal doors on the beach. Before doing so I was confronted by a woman coming down our spiral stairs from our second floor with a knife in her hand. Peter was upstairs at the time and had no doubt been seen by her while watching TV. She proceeded to attack me with the knife raised to stab which I managed to stave off until we got into the kitchen. She then had me on the floor. Next i was up and pushing her to the seaside gate which she jumped over and had a hard landing on our steps. At that point Peter arrived and it was all over and you can imagine how I was feeling. We called the police immediately who came by quickly and took the details of the attack. They asked if I would prefer charges to which I acceded. They returned in 20 minutes not having found or seen her. She was about 5' 2" in height, quite light skinned, fair hair, a Mexican woman. I have seen this woman in the village. Dressed in a heavy black sweater which probably saved me from a stabbing because with it i could hold off her knife hand. So lock your doors, be careful.
