This happened to us a few years ago (husband thinks it might have been after Halloween). Upstairs neighbour simply went to B&Q and bought replacement innards, then had new keys cut. Not sure exactly what you need to buy, but maybe someone can advise. Cheaper than getting a locksmith out.


And yes, report it to the police. Usual thing of building up a picture of crime in the area.

    • If commercial concerns are able to use the noticeboards to advertise their businesses, will they be charged a commercial fee?
    • There used to be a siamese that lived on Frien (Rye end) that had medical problems.  It may be that one.
    • It may be that the original purpose of the noticeboards could be changed to suit the changing needs of the ‘community’
    • Yes. I had already offered to do so  some time ago if you are not able to do this yourself. Monica is not in there every day, and it is holiday season at the moment. I will try to catch up with her in the next few weeks. I assume there is no hurry as this has been dragging on for so long. I will find out whether there was more than one key holder, or whether there was one for every notice board. Also whether the same key (or copies of the same key)  was used for each board. I will also find out how Monica  liaised with the relevant people on the council and what their job titles were I will ask what system there was for ensuring that only neutral and non commercial information is displayed on the boards, for getting that information and for updating it. Before I speak to Monica, it would be helpful to know if jellybeanz is offering to be the key holder for all the noticeboards and keep them up to date, or alternatively if anybody else apart from jellybeanz is willing to have a key. Please private message me if you prefer. I should make it clear that I am not offering to be a key holder or to be involved in this any further than I have outlined above. And also that I am not "getting a key". I am just finding out more from Monica. I feel that it would have been helpful to have addressed these practical issues at the outset.
