Another burglary to report - Friern Road/Goodrich Road Junction.


Forced entry via a double-locked (!!) sash window at the front of a terraced house in the middle of the night - didn't appear to come upstairs luckily where 5 of us were sleeping - none of us heard anything.


Nicked my car the b*stards, and a few electronics - will post about that in separate thread.


Police and CSI team have been down. Professional job in the middle of the night by someone who knew we would've been in, so they are not expecting to find any prints/DNA.


The CCTV kit I bought over the weekend is still in the packaging on the lounge floor - can't believe it!!!

Jesus, that's bloody scary that they were able to get in a double locked sash window. Is there nothing we can do to make ourselves safe? Feeling very nervous about going to bed now. I hate that our room is the floor above my son's. A friend suggested placing a baby monitor downstairs so you can hear if anyone comes in.

I don't know if it will help but do you have an outside security light with a movement sensor? I can't help but feel that if they were trying to break in under the glare of a light, they might think twice. Its only one small thing but everything helps...

Really sorry to hear of your break in.

Jacqui.

I don't think burglars really worry about the 'emotional impact' on their victims. 'Unscrupulous' I think is the word.

      By nbb · Posted

      Hello.   Thanks Nigel and Hparker 😀   I've got new slots available for new students looking for a piano teacher or guitar teacher.   You could start in the new term beginning September, or I'm also available adhoc-styles through the summer holidays at times.   I teach all ages, in most styles, in lots of different ways according to how you learn/like to learn.   Give me a call or text on 07730 402336.   I have connections to lots of performance opportunities/networks too.   I run regular events /student concerts, and play in bands/perform.   Natalie.

      So do I, but I think they are in trouble as well.  Anyway, that space wouldn't be big enough.

      Cllr Williams to stand down

      I'm not talking about Starmer. I was responding to a post which  said that  Corbyn was unelectable. How people voted in the "more hotly contested election" is irrelevant. Corbyn wasn't leading the Labour Party then. Starmer was. And the turnout for Labour reflects that.
