Just to remind you all to be security concious and make sure your windows and doors are all secure and in good working order. We were burgled this morning on Silverdale, they came in through our bathroom window, took a few things and went out the back door. I think I probably disturbed them before they could take more, as instead of going to work like I usually do I popped out to the GP and was back within 20 minutes so the flat was not empty for long.
My husband and I had discussed alarms recently as we know of several other houses in the SE26 area that have been burgled in the last 6 months and only wish we had installed one earlier. Not sure it would have made any difference, but it might have.
The police response was good and they were very helpful and friendly. Not much they can do after the fact though
