Ours too last night on Crystal Palace Road. Exactly the same - passenger door smashed in and glove box opened. Sat nav stolen. They were obviously on a spree! We have informed the police who came round very quickly.

We would like to add our recommendation for Bart and Peter's carpentry work too. They have just done an excellent job of refitting our understairs cupboard. It was a dark and damp wasteland before and they took out the old frontage,fully sealed and painted the floor and back wall and then fitted a new tall cupboard and three large drawers so that we can make maximum use of the space. All done in a week, bespoke designed and no fuss. We are really pleased with the result. Smart and functional.

If anyone has the number of a good carpenter to do some under stairs cupboards, please PM me.

Thanks very much for posting. Will be keeping the cat in for a while near Pellatt Road. Thoughts are with the poor families who lost their pets.

Saied has now finished our garden for us and we are really pleased with it. He did an excellent job, working hard every day to get the job done. The result is brilliant. He takes real care with the planting and managed to get hold of some fantastic, mature plants (e.g. Virginia creeper, hydrangea, jasmine, roses). It's great to have it looking how we would like it to look already. The raised beds are smart and sturdy and we have a lovely, solid bench in one corner of the garden that can be used for storage. One of our walls needed pointing so Saied did that for us, whitewashed all the walls around the garden and stained the fences on top green. Everything looks fresh and tidy and we have a great structure to work with now. Looking forward to getting more plants in and great to know that Saied is on hand to help us in the Spring.

Saeid is working on our garden at the moment, putting in raised beds, a patio area for a barbeque, building a bench with storage, painting our fences and walls and helping us to pick some great plants and bulbs to turn what is a blank canvas into something we are really excited about. I would really recommend Saeid. He is enthusiastic, knows his stuff and is really hardworking. It's a real pleasure having him around.

I would thoroughly recommend Bridges removals as well. We used them to move within SE22 a couple of weeks ago and they were fantastic! Flexible in the run up to exchange and before we had a firm moving date, competitive on price and really hard working throughout. The team arrived the day before to pack everything up for us and were so efficient. Nothing was broken in the move. On the day our furniture was dismantled and reassembled at the new house and they worked hard to get everything into place for us, which wasn't always easy. They also did an unpack and took away the boxes and packaging, which I would advise as it saved so much time. A friendly, positive team who we enjoyed spending a couple of days with. Really good value and reliable.
