A male and female PC just called round as there were two burglaries in the street in the early hours of 30 September, one next door and one at number 55. They were enquiring whether anyone had seen anything and after advising them that we have CCTV, they asked whether we could check it for anything suspicious. Anyway, in the middle of conversation, my front door slammed shut as a result of the back door being open (I was in the middle of putting some recycling in the sacks at the time the doorbell rang). Oh shit! Not the first time this has happened. I went over to Maria's to see if she was in as she has a spare key. Bugger. No answer. I asked the male PC whether he could get over the side gate and let me in. Bless him - he used the metal barrow that was in the alley to climb over the gate which is really high; there are no horizontal slats on it for your feet. I said to him 'I bet you didn't think you'd end up doing that when you came round'!! Very nice people actually and they took my name/number and I also gave them Maria and John's number and suggested they call there later as they also have CCTV. Hopefully we will find something on there which will be of use to the police. This road has seen quite a bit of crime since we've been here; hence our house being fixed with an alarm, cameras and safes.
