Hi
Just wanted to warn people to be vigilant as my neighbour on pemberton road was burgled yesterday evening. Someone kicked her front door in at around 7pm.

Kerri. Glad you flagged this. There were apparently 8 separate actual or attempted burglaries *last night alone* in the Ladder area, and my neighbour (also Pemberton) suffered an attempted burglary last week (while 4 others were also reported that same night). There is clearly a spate of burglaries happening in the neighbourhood.
My neighbour was saved by the fact that they had a strong Yale lock protected by a London Bar which stopped the perp getting in.
A few things spring to mind:
Might be worth the SNT team making some kinds of statement and offering a little advice at this point, anyone out there SNT?
I think most burglaries are opportunistic, but maybe this spate shows a slightly different MO. When we were getting quotes for an alarm to be fitted a few years ago, the salesman suggested the mostly likely entry point was the rear of the property, with the burglar typically heading for the bedroom where valuables such as jewelry, cash and maybe passports are kept. In our ladder of terraced houses I always thought the more likely entry was at the front. And these days I think the typical opportunist thief might head towards the living room or kitchen where they'd expect to find an iPad or similar product?
BTW the locksmith on Green Lanes sells london bars, same price as online I think. NFI.
Hate to be the bearer of another bit of bad news, but we were done over last week too. It was a quick grab with only a laptop and mobile snatched, so Justin's observation that they're 60 second jobs seems on the mark.
Please be en guarde folks and do stop and chat to neighbours. If these rogues return and think they're being closely observed they'll make themselves scarce.
Do you think that perhaps the iPad might be stolen in any burglary?
I thought the streaming is for live pictures only. If your video is being recorded to a remote server, I'd have thought that there would certainly be a monthly fee, but what do I know.
Perhaps you could tell me which app you have in mind. If I can remote record motion detected video when the house is empty for a £2.99 purchase price, with this current spate of burglaries, I'm in.
I remembered something like this from a while back where a guy used a programme on his stolen Mac to track the thief a.... Not sure what app is used, but it looks like a good idea to install it. Anyone got any better suggestions?
