    Two lads scoping Collegefort area last night, one was seen up on balconies by my neighbour and ran away only to come back an hour later with a friend trying to climb same balcony and getting spooked by something and running away again, garda was in the area within minutes. 2 lads ,one dressed in grey tracksuit with a hood on , second with a red jacket . This was at 12.30am and 2 am ( I am a light sleeper ,so saw them both , but only from the back )

    House in Hollywoodrath broken into this evening, they smashed in the back window and ripped a load of alarm sensors off the walls too. Might be setting up for a second go at the house. Monitored alarm, guards and neighbours on the scene pretty quickly. The estate had been getting suspicious activity last winter but this is the first actual reported breakin I believe.

    There’s been a lot of activity around the estate recently, someone was having a landscaper in and equipment was robbed from their van in broad daylight; caught on CCTV and the guards apparently got a fella over in swords for it.

    Awful. Jenny is eccentric but harmless, and well known enough that whoever did this likely targeted her knowing she's vulnerable but also just a nice person about the community.

    Bad weekend for Blanch related news, and it seems that the group that was terrifying taxi drivers up in Tyrrelstown moved on to bigger and better things, they're off in Malahide and Portmarnock with pals of theirs intimidating and robbing people. The kind of everyday small ball crime and intimidation that degradates communities unless it's dealt with fairly toughly.

    Incident last Saturday beside the Coolmine woods, one of the houses on Orchard Close had its windows put in by a group of youngsters. They were hassling one of the lads living in the house as he walked his dog through the woods, followed him home, he told them to get lost, they came back later that night and put in the downstairs windows. Who knows what was said by whom but it really feels like there's a few gangs of yobs going round various parts of Dublin nowadays.

    As I say, who knows what was said by whom first and when. Still, windows getting put in is pretty extreme - you can see the house top of orchard close.

    I don't go near them regularly nowadays but the coolmine woods used to be a regular place to get hassle. Pal of mine was robbed in it twice with a blade put to him; I got a watch taken some years ago in it. It is significantly thinned out nowadays and I think the behavior ebbs and flows with the generational cycle of the kids and kids of kids of the surrounding area.

    OMG you can't say or advocate that sort of brutish behaviour, sure if you agree with that the RULE OF LAW would break down..

    Better to look for reasons why they felt compelled to inflict such a vicious, nasty inhuman attack on a poor old woman, then buy them an X BOX.

    Am I right in saying what you're suggesting is, to have a long soul searching chat with these individuals and reward them with a X-Box? Which they can then go and flog for their next fix?

    Think tongue was firmly in cheek when that was suggested. !!--- that the poor perpetrator was somehow deprived.

    If I said what I truly feel I'd be banned for life, and maybe the next life as well...

    Which is by the way where I'd like to see the little cu0nts who done this.
