Hi folks,


Just had the police round to our place on Silvester Road to say our neighbours had a visit from two white males in a black panelled van who claimed to be gardeners, then stole her purse. We didn't see anything sadly, but if you were in the area and did, please let the cops know.


Might also be an idea to warn people you know in the area, particularly vulnerable groups.


Cheers!

I don't know any more than this, I'm afraid. The police simply said that it was two white guys in a black van who posed as gardeners and stole her purse. Reading between the lines, they probably wouldn't have gone to the trouble of impersonating gardeners if they planned to snatch it in front of her, so presumably it was a ruse to get into her house and take it.


No, I don't know what accents they had. Since the officer didn't mention them as being of note, I presume local or neutral English, but honestly no idea.

    • Hello all,  If your child goes to this gym club: since the new payment system, have you received clear information about the cost per session, the cost per term and when sessions will be omitted eg for school opened days? (I have asked the club, more than once, no full response so far) This term started in late August, before school had gone back (did many attend that session?). Next term there is no break for half term, so there are 12 sessions to be paid. Does that seem to be more sessions than there used to be?    I am sure they are doing their best, but the info from the new auto pay system isn’t detailed enough, and the auto pay just takes an unspecified amount. I wondered if it’s just me (wanting more detail), or if there are others too? (my child loves the gym itself!) thanks 
    • ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Excellent service! We had one of Paul Edgley’ s team come to fit some new lights in our living room. They were able to come at reasonably short notice, arrived on time, were friendly and professional, and did a great job. Everything was left clean and tidy afterwards, and the lights look fantastic. Highly recommend! Paul’s contact details are 07802 627967  
    • For Plusnet, I pay £31.99 for Full Fibre 500.  (the number is the line speed you have paid for) I have recently recontracted.  Always phone them up, and ask what deal they can do for me.  Usually get a decent reduction.  Sue, I would suggest you call them, especially if you are close to contract renewal.  Sometimes they will change deals mid-contract, as I have found in the past.
