Rather strange occurrence, thought I'd give a heads up.


Dropped my wife off in the car to go to William Rose around 5pm this afternoon. Not long had the door been shut a young, slightly dishevelled looking lady opened the passenger door and asked to be taken to Heathrow. Told her I wasn't a taxi at which point she said 'No, I need you to take me to Heathrow' and started to get in the car. Given the fact that a Fiat would make a crap taxi anyway and she had no bags my alarm bells went off. Not really fancying having her in the car I quickly accelerated a couple of feet before braking so she lost her footing and moved away. Shut the door, drove up the street a few yards and called 101 and reported it. Tried to keep an eye on her until the police arrived but she walked off up Blackwater Street rather quickly.


Soon after I realised my wifes laptop bag and my phone were in the passenger footwell so she may have spotted them and been after those.


Thought it worth a heads up. She was probably late twenties, black and in dark ripped & grubby clothing.

    • There was me overcome with memories of articles in women's magazines from the 1950s advising their readers how to be a good housewife and thinking it's like feminism never happened. Until I read the last paragraph. Be warned, this is PR from someone who runs a cleaning company.
    • Carpet can be a pain at times, the maintenance takes effort. I’ll look into that spray as a handy in-between for freshening things up. Steam cleaners are becoming more popular too and definitely seem more hygienic than a mop and bucket.  
    • I've found it quite a useful thread.  Apparently protein powders are toxic. Not that I have ever, or will ever, try them.   https://www.health.harvard.edu/staying-healthy/the-hidden-dangers-of-protein-powders
    • Personally can’t stand carpets however where I am renting has carpet in  bedroom and hall. Not great quality and certainly not cleaned. Was  in B & M recently and looking at carpet shampoo -wow got a can costing £2.99 to test.. No scrubbing as others seemed to imply. Spray, leave and poof - smells great, no dabbing or scrubbing and c leaving rubbish. First to admit is only temp solution but no need to hire carpet cleaner instantly  or pay for a company to come and deal with professionally. For 3/6 months happy to have used this - Have a carpet cleaner and in a month or so plan to use it.    Buy a steam cleaner for floors - not expensive - much better than mop and bucket and more hygienic all round. Can pick up second hand ones on e bay.
