When i lived up Broxtowe ( woodfield rd ) i got broke into and all my stuff was sold the day after in the cocked hat.....Dont suppose i was the only one either.

I too lived on Woodfield road (circa 1971-1975), number 115. Got broke into the night I was rushed into hospital. Came home 4 weeks later to empty meters, broken window and less furniture. Great Christmas that was!
