I had my front door pushed in and my jewellery cash camera etc taken.


It seems to be a common theme - we need as neighbours to look out for each other. There is obviously a lot of scum about in this area which is a shame.


I feel so violated, I am living on my own in a ground floor flat on a road I thought was alright, until my neighbour showed me photos of her face having been attached on Oakhurst Grove, and now this, I feel so unsafe.


The police did not even hang around to see if I was OK when I got in, if they had I could have shown them other places to fingerprint, could have told them they bastards had taken a side access key.


Let's be aware that this is taking place in broad daylight and try and stop it happening.


I dont want others to go through this, make sure you have contents insurance, I dont unfortunately.

Sorry to hear about this. I feel for you as I myself single lady living on the ground floor was burgled too nearly two years ago now, in broad daylight. Unlike you I did have insurance.

The police where really good with me, I was also offered some window vibration alarms, and I have since installed an alarm system. It did take a long time to feel safe again.


If you do not have an alarm system already, get one. ADT are doing great deals at the moment, and get some contents insurance living in London, contents insurance is a must.


Change your locks too; the locksmiths on Lordship Lane near GBK are good. Good Luck..

I sympathise, When I was burgaled I too felt violated. I wanted to kill the perps- not my usual reaction to bad experiences. The Government has as last realised that Domestic Burglary is not just a property crime but a crime against the person. Let's hope that it is dealt with much more seriously.

buntysammy,



I am very sorry to read what happened to you, you have my deepest sympathy. I have only been robbed once; unfortunately bolts on front sash window were'nt adequate and burglar got into front room and stole some pricey items but did'nt explore the rest of the house. Now security 'beefed' up.

However, I am one of these nosey old retired people who spends a lot of time at home watching what goes on down the street, so be assured there's quite a few of us around to help with the situation.


Kind regards.

Probably not connected but my car was broken into last Sat. in Hindmans Road. Spotted by a neighbour on Sunday morning. Quaterlight broken and about ?3 taken from ashtray/coin tray plus a cheap torch. There seems to a spate of trouble in this area suddenly. Could it be we have new neighbours?


New quaterlight cost me ?65 but the leaks under the dashboard when it rains seem to have stopped, so not all bad.

So sorry to hear this, I'm on oakhurst and got burgled in August, they smashed in our dog door and put a kid through who then unlocked the door.. I'm always out and about with the baby now on oakhurst so will defo keep my eyes peeled.. There is nothing worse than fuckers in your house knicking your stuff!!


Hope you are ok x

Thanks for your lovely messages, I am feeling OK thanks. I don't have much of value, I now have nothing and I will miss my jewellery as it was sentimental to me.


Let's keep our eyes open and hope we can stop some of our neighbours going through the same.

My car was done on Landcroft Rd overnight Thu 19 into Fri 20. Again, just for the parking meter coins in the ashtray, about a tenner probably, but cost me my ?150 excess. Cop told me there's been a spate of cash crimes around here recently - someone's seemingly in desperate need of that next hit. Scrotes.

They caught the guy that broke in to mine, he was fresh out of prison, wanted to go back in, left his prints and waited to get picked up - said he hid my stuff in a bush and got back and it was gone - if anyone hears of anything like this, let me know, I would love my jewellery back :(

    • Where did I say he did a good job? Yup and Corbyn was very close to Len McCluskey and funded by Unite wasn't he...they're all as bad as each other... Labour have to purge their party of the far-left - they're a disaster. Allan Johnson summed it up so well on election night in 2019....  
    • Thank you for the detailed advise @trinidad It is definitely damage we are concerned about. I don’t think Evri would agree to pay the bill to fix our gate or letter box if they were to be damaged as a result of their delivery drivers helper. Our doorbell can be heard from outside when rung so we don’t quite believe the aggressive simultaneous door/letter box banging is necessary. It can be quite a shock it is done very aggressively.  I’ll definitely action the steps you’ve kindly provided along with a phone call tomorrow. I do sympathise with the role drivers have and how busy they are, which is why we tried communicating directly with her but sadly we haven’t succeeded 
    • What outcome would you like? Disciplinary action? Not to have the driver back? Retraining? I know there is alot of pressure on drivers to deliver within a set day. if he slams the gate, is it evidence he is causing damage, or is the noise a irritant to yourself? You could put a sign up or buy a signing asking to close the gate gentle???? can you hear the door bell from the door? he might be ringing, not hearing and therefore knocking. In trhe notes section of the be livery page, there is a note section, although there is not 100 per cent these notes would be read as these drivers are constantly rushing.  I did a google search for you, i found this and you can try the envri website Contact Us | Evri   To complain to Evri, you can follow these steps: Contact Customer Service: Call Evri's customer service at 0330 808 5456 for assistance with your complaint.    1 Write a Letter: Address your complaint to Capitol House, 1 Capitol Close, Morley, Leeds, West Yorkshire, LS27 0WH.    1 Use the Official Website: Visit the Evri complaints page on their official website for detailed instructions on how to submit a complaint.    2 Email or Call for Specific Issues: For issues like missing or damaged parcels, you can email or call 0800 988 8888, which is free to call.    1 These methods will help you effectively communicate your concerns to Evri.   My driver is called anthony, he is brilliant to be honest. I cant fault him.
    • When I have more time and energy, I will look up the actual number of votes cast for each party in that election, rather than the number of seats won. I'm interested to see that you apparently  think that  Boris Johnson did a good job of "leading the country through Covid." Is your memory really that short? I won't stoop to calling Johnson and his cronies names in the way that you seem to think is appropriate for left wing politicians. At least the left wing politicians have some semblance of morals and a concern for people who aren't in some over privileged inner circle and/or raking in money for themselves on the back of an epidemic. I'm not going to open a can of worms on here  by commenting on the disgraceful so called "purge".
