Another burglary to report - Friern Road/Goodrich Road Junction.


Forced entry via a double-locked (!!) sash window at the front of a terraced house in the middle of the night - didn't appear to come upstairs luckily where 5 of us were sleeping - none of us heard anything.


Nicked my car the b*stards, and a few electronics - will post about that in separate thread.


Police and CSI team have been down. Professional job in the middle of the night by someone who knew we would've been in, so they are not expecting to find any prints/DNA.


The CCTV kit I bought over the weekend is still in the packaging on the lounge floor - can't believe it!!!

Jesus, that's bloody scary that they were able to get in a double locked sash window. Is there nothing we can do to make ourselves safe? Feeling very nervous about going to bed now. I hate that our room is the floor above my son's. A friend suggested placing a baby monitor downstairs so you can hear if anyone comes in.

I don't know if it will help but do you have an outside security light with a movement sensor? I can't help but feel that if they were trying to break in under the glare of a light, they might think twice. Its only one small thing but everything helps...

Really sorry to hear of your break in.

Jacqui.

I don't think burglars really worry about the 'emotional impact' on their victims. 'Unscrupulous' I think is the word.

    • Hey fellow cat owners! Was hoping that you would consider putting collars with bells on your outside cats? I’ve wee fledglings in a nest and at the moment I’m defending them against an orange and white dude (I call him Trump) and his nemesis, a lovely Tuxedo cat (I call Elon)… they are quite the double act in my back garden!!!! It would give the wee ones a bit of a better chance if a bell could announce their approach. And as a feline owner myself, I know cats will be cats, but every little helps even the odds. many thanks.
