Hi, Is there any other way without taking the heathrow express? As it is ?15 in itself and ?10 to get there.A taxi is ?35 Cheers

A burglar would always go for the easiest option they would burgle a house without alarm than one that does.Get a huge alarm box outside your front door and that in itself should be a good enough deterrent.If my neighbours went off at night and it rand loud and long enough then of course ill see whats happening.

Did you have an alarm?

unfortunately because of how messsed up the british law is they'll probably just get a slap on the wrist

East Dulwich! Forest Hill! Sydenham! Where to live?
Andyng replied to Spangles30's topic in General ED Issues / Gossip
Even if you downsize a to a ?300k flat you will be paying ?9k stamp duty and about ?1800 solictors fees already ?11k there properties in ED are worth a bit more.Best stay put for a good few years and release more equity then. -
