Hi there, I've just joined the forum having lived in SE23 now for 8 months. Sadly the first post is also to report a burglary that happened back at the start of October in Northwood Road. Two bikes we're stolen from the rear of the property, as a terraced street I had naively assumed our back garden was a safe and secure place to have the bikes but unfortunately this is not the case. The thieves had somehow gained access to the rear of the properties and climbed over numerous garden fences to remove the bikes.

It's a shame to be writing such a negative post but hopefully by alerting you to this incident and sharing the information with you we may avoid future thefts.
