My boyfriend and I have been to spain for a week, forgot to cancel the milkman so the bottles were outside (clear signal that no one is home!). When we got in the backdoor was open to our garden. We forgot to lock it :-( But nothing had happend. East Dulwich is not such a bad place after all!!!
If it's your back door, maybe it doesn't make much of a difference whether it's locked or not... I mean, if a potential burglar notices you're away, and goes to snoop around your back garden, the chances are that if he's got that far he'll just break in anyway.

Open or unlocked window/door = no insurance payout. Be very careful!


I'm considering a fully security upgrade of my place. Alarms, door reinforcement, concealed cctv, the lot! If anyone is experienced in this or has anyone then can recommend, then please PM me.

AcedOut do you really think that's necessary? I mean what part of the world do you live in where home security to the max is needed?

Don't get me wrong I totally agree you can never be too careful and all that. Just wondered if your particular neck of the woods had big issues with crime?

True!


I guess I was just trying to point out the probability of getting burgled if your backdoor is unlocked is probably quite close to the probability of getting burgled if your backdoor is locked.

Went out for the day here in Nunhead. Left the front door wide open. Returned to find everything in order except for a note from the local Police suggesting we close it next time and remove our key cars from the hooks in the hall.

And that was before the Home Sec. and armed officers moved in to the area ensuring even better protection.

i constantly leave my car unlocked due to poor memory, but it's made me feel more safe living in ed as nothing happens. until this week though when someone rifled through the contents. the shameful thing is they took nothing. my car contents are obviously worth nothing to the local scallys.

Someone broke into my flat, took everything, then before I got back they replaced everything, exactly everything, making it look like nothing happened. All that was different was the cat had turned over. You wait till I find out who did that!


But anyway, I recommend www.immobolise.com and if you go to the other thread about burglaries I wrote about this and the local police ward panels and how to get involved.

Will you guys all please give your addresses and the location of your cars to the local criminal fraternity. That way they can happily ply their trade without having to go to all the effort of breaking windows etc. It will save an awful lot of time and money.

    • Not really since the first world war, and mainly in the sense then of 'getting a Blighty one' meaning a wound so serious you had to be sent home. I seriously doubt if one school child in 100 now would know what Blighty meant if the word was presented on its own with no context.

    • Why is the name a big of a red flag? Blighty is a common name for the UK whatever people might think.
    • The only election which counts is the General Election.  There is still strong resentment for fourteen year's of Conservative rule. They squeezed the working class's way to hard, then they squeezed the middle class, but somehow the upper class never got touched, funny that.   There is also new resentment for Labour because of the utter balls up they've made of things since coming to power nine months ago. The majority of the population (or at least those with an ounce of common sense) want these clowns out of office ASAP because they see the damage they are doing to UK plc. They squeezed the pensioners, then the farmers and then business. They made and broke promise after promise, or just didn't tell the truth or say what they where going to do, otherwise known as merely lying to get elected. Inflation may be falling but the cost of things in the shops and utility bills keep on rising, the direct opposite of what they promised. They will never be trusted once they are ousted from power in about four and a half years time.   Everything they do and touch causes further harm, led by three stooges, Rayner, Reeves and balls'less Starmer, who couldn't fight his way out of a paper bag. He still thinks he's a solicitor at the DPP. Rather than spending week upon week getting involved in international politics he needs to be sorting out the UK's issues, sadly he's not up to the job and nor are his Cabinet.  Society needs a mix of people with different skills to prosper, not more and more graduates who can't get jobs in what they studied in.   Reform is the current anti establishment party, which will hopefully wither away back to where it came from.  The Liberals and Greens, well what can you say apart from using them as another alternative vote of dissatisfaction, but neither will come to power.  The country seriously needs stability and a Government that stands up for and represents it's people, not what MP's want but what the constituencies want and need.  Government needs to become far more open and transparent, it needs to be seen to be doing its job, doing what MP's are elected to do,  working for the people in the constituencies, getting back to basic principles and rebuilding the trust which has been lost by successive party's immaterial of them being, red, blue, light blue, yellow, green or some other colour.
