Hello, my ford focus was broken into (although no signs of forced entry) and raided. The got away with my ipod touch 4th gen 32gb serial CCQFNWBNFCP9, my dad's sat nav which i borrowed (TomTom XXL) was also nicked with my xloop sunglasses..if anyone sees these sold on here, or know anyone who has been offered this stolen gear, please let me so I can help get my things back, as they mean a lot to me! Also be extra careful in the Gipsy Hill / Dulwich Wood avenue area, as my car has self-locking (so even if I didnt lock it wudda self lock after 30 secs) either these guys are opportunists or have a special hacked unlocking fob! Cheers friends :)

This is happening really frequently at the moment. My sister used to work in the car industry and she explained to me that there are sophisticated thieves with devices that unlock your car so it seems as though you forgot to lock it. She mentioned something about their having to be nearby when you lock/ unlock your car in order to encode their device (although she has been out of the industry for about 8 years now so maybe it isn't the case anymore). I think the only way to prevent this is by not leaving any valuables in the car...as a matter of interest, as there was no forced entry presumably your car insurance won't pay out?
The same thing happened to me earlier in the year, I thought I hadn't locked it and it wasn't until I got into the car did I realise, as I never keep anything in the car they took my lock nut re-leaser, so had to buy a new set of lock nuts etc. I also found the contents of the boot on the side walk, luck for me no one had taken it !!! That same week three others all ford's were broken into but again very little taken.... sorry to hear this. I hope you will get your things back will keep an eye out for you!!

    • A shout out for Mark, owner of Pure Plumbers. 07970 971510 They're well established in the Sevenoaks area, but have recently started doing more work in SE London.  Did some v quick and efficient bathroom and boiler fixes for me; have also seen some of the bathrooms he's built, which have a nice attention to detail.

    • Totally agree regarding not supporting chains. Gail’s was fine but last time I went in Feb this year, actually walked out Fayetteville looking at menu and waiting 15 minutes to even get glass of water and not busy at all. Staff gone down hill - sooner it goes the better… Always prefer to support non chains - so many lovely places with good food to choose from with pleasant staff who know about customer service and sadly, non English which says a lot for our culture, pubs are also becoming abit of a hit and miss affair but maybe just unlucky. At the end of the day all about the chef. Still abit unclear where new place is located - is it down the road from Goose Green where parade of shops are before Peckham Rye?  
    • Surely only where the local businesses offer clear advantages, otherwise you are rewarding what should be failure. I want to be served by a better bakery than Gail's, not a worse but local independent one. Certainly give a local independent some time to get the offer right, but don't buy goods which are worse and or more expensive just because the outlet isn't a chain. 
    • Let’s just boycott all chains in favour of local businesses.  Places like Gail’s popping up everywhere has a very damaging impact on small businesses. It’s just the same as the new empanadas place but on a bigger scale. I’ll say it a million times more, we hold the power with our choices. Let’s use our power to look after ourselves and our environment (which includes small local family businesses). And yes, I also love Chacarero.
