I just wondered if anyone knew what the score was with the alarm that keep myself & Mr P awake all last night? I think it is somewhere on North Cross Road. Started about 11.30pm last night, I was going to go out & investigate this morning, but it seems to have finally stopped...Just wondered if it might have anything to do with the young men who broke a window in the Thai Corner Cafe the other week?

Funny, I was walking up Northcross Road at about 10:15pm and there was an alarm going off at the chemist. I wouldn't have liked to live nearby, it was quite deafening. Does nobody report these things to the police, what happens, does anyone care. I did nothing, call me a hypocrite!

I once called the Police because my neighbour's house alarm was going off and they were on holiday. The response from the Police was 'have you actually seen anyone breaking in?' As I hadn't, and didn't fancy investigating myself in the darkness of night, they told me that if it hadn't stopped after an hour call the environmental people at the Council.

Rubbish.

I was less bothered by the noise and more worried for my neighbours that their house was being robbed. It seems that unless you actually witness first hand a break-in, the police aren't bothered. I appreciate there are more serious crimes to attend to, but being robbed is pretty serious too don't you think?

Alarms are temperamental and I know mine has been off a few times. My first reaction is never ?OMG there?s an undesirable in my house? but always ?OMG what about next door?. But my next door neighbour is a honey and never complains!


Alarms just deter a burglar into going to a house without an alarm because, let?s face it, we all want an easy life.

      Free / cheap adult bike for a school project

      By marctt · Posted

      Suggest you contact the Young Lewisham Project (https://www.younglewishamproject.com) and see if they have an old bike you can have. Otherwise keep an eye on Freecycle (https://www.freecycle.org) as bikes often given away on there. Hope this helps

      Price rises in Sainsbury’s

      By Insuflo · Posted

      The price of some things seems to be volatile. I think there must be a spike in international chocolate markets or some such. Sainsbury’s recently increased the price of both Club and Penguin biscuits from £1.60 to £2.00 a pack in one hit, so a 25% rise.

      Lordship Lane Post Office Closure

      By Dogkennelhillbilly · Posted

      Well said. I don't think much of that post office's business is Mrs Miggens withdrawing £7.34 in cash from her pension because she can't be doing with the new-fangled computers. That's a stereotype. I'm terminally online and digital but when you're dealing with physical objects (like bloody parcels or cash!) sometimes you need to drop them off and pick them up from somewhere. That's especially true for international items. I don't want to do that at Tesco or Ken's Korner Kabin where you have to piss around with some deadbeat courier's app which never works, and where you can't yet the courier on the phone and the poor guy in the shop doesn't know how to fix it and is only being paid 13p for the transaction. I don't want a million white vans being driven up and down the same street every day by insecure workers in the gig economy being paid peanuts. I want to drop my stuff off and pay the fee at my local post office, and I want my stuff to be delivered by my brilliant friendly postie who knows me and my neighbours and where to leave stuff safely. And judging by the huge queues out the door at Lordship Lane PO it seems there are plenty of people who end up coming to the same conclusion. Rant over...for now.
