I've had a few, never smelt a thing. Maybe we have a better class of burglar around here.

Yep, but Steve's Afrikaans sucks. 1ste, eerste. Then again, Twitter is limited in total of characters.
Robbed or burgled? Does sound like robbed overall, but still missing something, the dogs barked.... something happened so that somehow someone got into the house and wasn't stopped by Steve... TV and xbox were taken. If that someone was armed, then it was an armed robbery.
To my knowledge "1e" is acceptable in Afrikaans. Maybe it is "old Afrikaans"...Dutch even.
Breaking down the definitions of words now?
No, I just want to know what happened, get a clearer picture as to what occurred between the dogs barking and TV + xbox disappearing. Guess twitter length is too limiting and no journalist phoned to get more info.
Shame, so the fact that it may be true passed over your head?
May well be true, but given the quality of some of his previous tweets I find it best to treat whatever he says with extreme caution.
In that case it will be abbreviated to eene. Must be the Joburg Afrikaans, kouse vs sokkies...

He said his television, Xbox and the police were still missing from the scene, but that the security company had responded.
Burglars sometimes leave a calling card on the bed or floor.The charitable interpretation would be the stench of the robbery in general. That idea of your personal space being violated etc. that you feel after you've been robbed.
Be funny if the robber was a wit ou ...
At least they had good taste
Wonder why they never stole his music
