We had the police come around today and tell us there a lot of burglaries going on near us (around oakhurst grove/the gardens). Things are so bad that there are a lot of plain clothes police out and about right now and some uniformed officers are going around door to door warning people, offering advice and giving out "smart water" tagging kits. The smart water stuff is a rather cool invisible micro-tagged gel that flureses under UV light and when looked at under a microscope shows a unique serial number that had been assigned by the police to your house. You wipe some on your valuables and if they turn up getting hocked they can very likely be IDed as yours. Very CSI.


My points here are

1) take care and keep and eye out. It sounds like there are some pretty organised theives around our area

2) thanks to the local police for a really positive pro-active step in protecting us from them


This has to be the most positive policing initiative I've seen in my 8 years in london. I am totally chuffed by how it's been handled.

Just emailed the efficient Katherine Pitt and got this message- pasted below-straight back..phone number for anyone who wants a kit.



thank you for getting in touch, I have just received an email about this from another East Dulwich resident too.


The police should be able to provide you with a SmartWater kit. I have forwarded your email to the East Dulwich Safer Neighbourhood Police Team. I'm not allowed to give out their email address, but if for any reason you don't hear back, their phone number is 020 8721 2447.


kind regards

    • Because the previous Libdem/Tory coalition council did so much better? ....Oh wait. Selling off the Heygate at a bargain price and reducing the number of council homes it replaced? Being in opposition is so much easier isn't it James.  The point on allowances etc is a valid one, and that is about finding the right balance between the responsibility of those cabinet roles and the role of service that should underpin all political aspirations in an ideal world. Holding down a full time job, while having to attend meetings and then deal with case work on top, is a huge ask imo. People in key roles need to have the time needed to do those roles effectively, so some renumeration makes sense. It's just a question of where the balance should be. McAsh has walked away from that, so his convictions are doing more talking than careerism arguably.  Worth pointing out that most MPs started out as party/ political activists/ campaigners on a local level. Different parties have different processes for selecting candidates, but everyone starts out at a low level. 
    • I think the Galleon on Dunstans Road beats that. been work in process for 5+ years. 
    • Cleaning in East Dulwich and the surrounding areas for well over a decade, we've worked hard to always provide great cleaning and reliable cleaners. We pride ourselves on delivering a high-quality cleaning service and making sure the cleaners turn up when you need and want them to. Our growth has mainly been by recommendations on the Forum, local Facebook pages and clients recommending us to their neighbours on street WhatsApp groups. We know it can be hard to trust someone to come into your home, many times when you're not there, so we only use cleaners that we know and have been checked, trained and are happy to be supervised by us. Accidents can happen so we're fully insured to cover any and all situations that may arise. On top of cleaning we can do additional tasks such as managing washing, ironing, bed changes and oven cleans. Plus working with local partners we can arrange window cleaning and carpet cleans for you. So if you want to come home to a clean and tidy place, with the floors cleaned, surfaces dusted, cobwebs removed, dishes washed, cushions plumped, clothes folded, beds made, and the bathroom gleaming, get in touch today!

    • Hardly! The awning is half hanging off and it looks like it's about to collapse between the two upstairs windows. Looks awful and it's not clear there is construction "going on" there now.
