Last two weeks I've seen a few blokes late at night 11pm - 02:00am hanging around there and blokes sitting in cars waiting around. Maybe I'm being too OTT, thinking this is dodgy. But I hear about theifs scooping out properties before they attack them. Just a heads up for folks living nearby there.

Hopefully they won't scoop out so much that there's nothing left to half inch.


1) Description of the culprits plz. Number of/ethicity/clothing/make

and model of car/blood type.


2) Have you told the local rozzers?

Wow. What are the chances of that?! Local Internet Forum literally foils burglars.

Amazing effort, all of you. Looks like my cynicsm was completely misplaced.


Well done to all involved. Gold stars all round.


I reckon the South London Press would love this story.

Yes, earlier in the evening I read Easties post to sensibleman, it made him think & he recalled noticing a couple of men hanging around on Glengarry this past week late at night (he often comes home from work between 11-12pm). There's nothing going on round here so reason to be hanging round if you see what I mean. So when we heard an odd thumping noise from the street outside we were extra aware of the possibility of something untoward happening. SM was out the door - like a rat up a drainpipe, while I stood on the sofa in our front window craning my neck to see whatever I could. What a right pair we must have looked, luckily it paid off in this instance.

    • I didn't say wedge it "slightly" open. I meant to wedge it fully open. 
    • I have a rescue Spanish greyhound (galgo) from the charity mentioned above. You can contact Greyhounds in Need or one of the more local Kent greyhound rescue charities. They are fantastic family dogs. They do love walkies 2 or 3 times a day but they actually don't need to be walked too far and then they will happily loaf around on the sofa being very chill. They are brilliant with kids but not recommended if you own a cat as they have a strong prey drive. They also should be kept on the lead in local parks. They prefer to be around other sight-hounds (well my one does) and there are loads of local sighthound owners in Peckham, Crystal Palace etc and a very lively WhatsApp group that is brilliant if you need dog sitting as you can usually find someone to do that for free in return for you looking after the dog at a later date etc.
    • @Jenijenjen I assure you we are always polite and friendly too! Which is why the behaviour we have been receiving is so frustrating. The kids always leave her with a “Thank you have a lovely day”  Our concern is leaving the gate slightly wedged doesn’t stop the action of slamming it open and closed…still leading to damage  
    • If you're talking about who I think you are, I find them more exuberant than rude and usually smiling and polite. But then, I'm usually smiling and polite to them. Can you not wedge open your gate when you're expecting them?
