Older guy on motorised 3 wheeler stolen go cart from our front garden

Hi

I saw this chap outside our house yesterday on Henslowe road and thought he looked a bit dodge. He drives a 3 wheeled makeshift motorised bike. My partner just saw him at the bottom of our street trailing our sons go cart behind him and assumed I'd given it away. I hadn't! He removed it without permission and when my son wakes up he'll be devastated. Anyone know this fella?

Hi


I saw the guy yesterday afternoon. He's white, medium build, late 50/60's and hairy with a beard. He was wearing a hi vis jacket and looked scruffy. He was loading bits of wood from a skip onto the back of his 3 wheeled bike thing which is kind of like a rickshaw without a roof yesterday afternoon outside a neighbours further down the road. He hung around a bit (I know this as a DHL van was taking forever to deliver yesterday so I was stuck further down the street).


I thought nothing else of it until my partner came home last night at about 9.45 saying that a man on a 3 wheeler was speeding down our road with our sons Kettler go kart attached. Not wanting to give chase in case he turned out to be dangerous and wondering whether I'd consented to this meant my partner didn't give chase.


It wasn't locked up (as it should have been) as my son had the day before used the lock for his bike but it was clearly not on display or in anyway advertised as a freebie, plus I was in last night and our front gate closed. This guy is a thief and I've reported the theft to the police. Please watch out for him and if he's in your area during the day it's likely he's scoping out stuff in your garden so I guess be aware and lock away kids bikes/scooter or anything else of value.

Hello Cazzyr ,


I am a local scrap man , I get around London quite a bit .


I see a LOT of dodgey ( non-licensed ) scrappys and waste collectors about - I have never seen one on a trike except a couple of local gypsies working nearby Surrey Canal Road ( Industrial Section ) , they also reside in the closely situated Camp Site by the train station .


If you can upload a photo/image of what this bike/trike looks like (closest as possible ) I will can help get the word out and hopefully may find out who this person is doing this and find a way to get in contact him .


Well , I go to go but I will come back here if I see what you described !


Matthew

    • Plenty for sale online from various ticket vendors but you'll need to part with £250 and upwards by the looks of it. Out of interest i kept an eye on the prices for the England and Italy Euro final. At one point they were on offer for a couple of grand each. On the day sellers were obviously getting itchy feet and prices dropped somewhat but never went any lower than £400. That was a few hours before kick off. There was plenty still available half an hour before kick off.   Having been to Wembley a couple of times for play off finals i found it to be not a great place to watch football. Sat three rows back from the pitch side advertising hoardings for one game and way way up in the gods for the other. We felt to far away from the pitch on both occasions. Up in the goods was just stupid because we felt cut off as well.  I don't think it was rebuilt with acoustics in mind either. Even with most of our 25k fans singing it never sounded loud because it's pretty much uncovered and too open.   Happy hunting!
    • It doesn't work as a commercial venture.  Bit churlish to say I told you so.  I told you so.  I'll send less greetings cards.  What pees me off is international postage where you can no longer send light letters at 10 grammes, normal ones up to 20g, now all at the much more expensive 100 g  Didn't we vote to take back control and price everything according to irrational units like ounces? That's some obscure humour btw   
    • Available from Monday April 8th 2024, 2on2Walkies take pride in doggie care and only walk 2 furry friends at a time. I make sure that they get plenty of doggie interaction and socialisation in the park as well as making friends. Back home happy and tired I always check that the water bowl has fresh water and always make sure the doggie is left comfortable before I leave. I'm fully insured and have a couple of slots available for local walks to either Peckham Rye Park or Dulwich Park.  Thank you!  
    • Why would they only send them recorded delivery? I used the signed for option yesterday.
