As nothing appears to have been taken, apart from a bottle of water,the police probably would not be interested taking prints. But the clothing is quite distinctive and combined with the fact that it is white, male, brown hair, medium build. Not a professional I guess as most thieves go out with a back pack to carry a couple of tools and also into which they can store their loot

At 00.56am on Tuesday this scrote was filmed entering our car. He had a face mask and all dark clothing however the clothing had certain distinguishing features. Perhaps someone can identify the writing on the jacket and trousers. See video clip below Pleased to say he went away empty handed as we leave nothing of any value in the car.

Looking for a short length of electric (twin & earth) lighting cable. Most likely there could be some in a skip near you??

I'd second that.

Electrical work can be dangerous, and hiring an unqualified individual can put you and your family at risk. and negate your insurance. A qualified electrician has the training and experience to safely handle any electrical issues, reducing the likelihood of accidents or injuries. With the exception of simple tasks, it is illegal for anyone other than a licensed electrician to perform electrical work. Hiring a qualified electrician ensures that the work is done in compliance with local laws and building codes. Some electricians are being recommended on EDF but here is no indication that they registered with NICEIC or NAPIT. One is well advised to steer clear of Check-a-Trade which is a marketing service funded by subscription.

My car is even older and I also only keep the tank half full because if someone siphons it, the maximum I loose is half.

I'd be tempted to put up some sort of fence to delineate the area and see what happens. Probably nothing.

Looking for books on the above wars - preferably first person accounts.

I thoroughly recommend Jay from JK Electrical Contractors who is an NICEIC registered. NICEIC is the UK's leading certification body for the electrical contracting industry and conducts regular audits and assessments on all its members. It is the specialist trade body which certifies professional electricians. He is not listed on Check-a Trade which in my view is nothing more than a dubious operation which charges tradesmen a fee for listing their details. They make no checks on "members". Avoid Check-a-Trade however desperate you may be. Jay initially carried out an EIRC and then completed the installation of a 19 way consumer unit for us and works to the highest standards and our entire electrical installation is now fully compliant with 18th Edition of the electrical wiring regulations. Before installing the new CU he traced and corrected faults that had developed over the last 25 years -some of which were my DIY bodges that were non-compliant. We now have an installation that is 100% safe and reliable . Safety and reliability is crucially important if you need an EIRC report done - especially if it is a for a rental property- where the landlord becomes liable if anything goes wrong. His contact details are :- 0208 150 6450 [email protected] Here is what he installed for us.

Did you actually see it happen? I ask because the evidence in the photo suggests that all the cones and green barriers appear to be pushed over from the left to the right -possibly by a pedestrian. They would have been used to cordon off the area on the left where materials are being stored. The cones and green barriers are also in are all in a straight line whereas if they were rammed by a car then they would have been scattered randomly more to the left.

Before using an ATM, I always look around and see if there any likely opportunists hanging around. If there is, I just walk away and observe from close by. At the ATM, I always cup my left hand over the key pad when entering the pin with my right. I then have one hand ready to collect the cash and the other over the card slot.

Big shout-out to the lovely ladies at Dolled Up beauty parlour, at 209 Lordship Lane, who resolved a courier mis-delivery problem for me. These stunning ladies have warm hearts and a fantastic sense of humour, combined with a great community spirit. I wish them well in their new business at 209 Lordship Lane.

Roll on the time , if ever, when we adopt the Australian system whereby the agreed price becomes binding. The whole process takes place much more swiftly and with less hassle than it does here. Scotland have a good system also.

You have to believe it!

A "runaround" ? If you can you be more specific, I'm sure I can fix you up with a nice, reliable, fuel-efficient vehicle.

Can you quote any statistics in any detail - particularly for those roads which are no more congested because of the traffic diverted on to them by the LTN?

I'm looking for a small piece ( say 12" x 12") of 12.5 mm plasterboard so I can patch a couple of holes in the ceiling where we had down lights. Plaster board is one of the most common items that go on skips so hoping I can get a positive outcome fairly soon.

Is Dulwich a black hole for electricians?
