We had an attempted break in on Landcroft road last night - minutes after going to bed at about 11.30, a group of people tried to kick the door in but were scared off by our shouts and our neighbours taking chase. There were about 6 people (4 male and 2 female), but they got away. We called the police, but they were obviously unable to do anything. We'll be stepping up security tomorrow, but it's left us pretty nervous and we have an eight week old baby which makes matters worse.


Did anyone else have any trouble last night or perhaps see the group? The police said nothing else had been reported, but the gang weren't shy about creating a lot of noise and bringing attention to themselves, so it seems unlikely that nothing else happened.


Don't forget to lock up, it was a pretty terrifying evening.

    • has lost a Bengal cat there was one wandering around Townley Road this morning - I'm assuming it is not the norm for this fellow to be out and about solo but I'm not a cat expert... IMG_5815.heic IMG_5819 2.heic
    • Hi everyone, I'm Gen, a catsitter based in Sydenham - if you're away this summer and need some care for your pets, please do consider me!  I can typically cover Sydenham, Forest Hill, Penge, Anerley, Crystal Palace, East Dulwich and parts of Peckham. If it's outside those areas, it still might be worth messaging me to see if I can help. I'm registered with Cat in a Flat, with flawless reviews – I'm happy to accept clients through there, or just directly (you can just DM me on the forum here) - whichever you're more comfortable with. I've been catsitting for a few years, and also used to volunteer for Celia Hammond. Here's my profile https://catinaflat.co.uk/pet-sitter/377081 Ping me a message if you need help or have any questions!
    • And we humans bear a lot of responsibility for creating the conditions that brought foxes into urban settings. I certainly don't regard them as pests - they are noisy little criminals, but I'm very fond of them (we have huge numbers of them in my area - I rescued a lost baby fox earlier this year). However, there are pest control companies that use humane methods to deter them and redirect them to different territories (a friend of mine works for one, but sadly for OP, I don't think this is in their catchment area).
    • Please don't call them "pests". They are animals who have as much right to be here as we do. Which doesn't mean we can't use humane ways to keep them off our crops, like fruit cages and netting.
