Just a heads up to everyone. We had a delivery man knock on our door tonight with 3 pizzas we had not ordered. We told him they were "not ours", he then said there were some youths hanging round outside and he thought itcould be a scam. We invited him in while the guys hung around outside for a while and I called the police. He was a bit scared I think though tried not to show it. I think they would have grabbed the delivery bag and possibly assulted him. If this happens to you keep an eye out for the delivery person and make sure he gets back to his vehicle safely if pos, I felt pretty sorry for him.

Report of a similar case in Peterborough (planned theft of three pizzas after giving a false address which resulted in death of delivery driver) reported in today's Standard:

As a former pizza delivery driver the first thing I was told was you either come back with the pizza or the money, so I doubt it!


Well done to the OP for helping him.

I expect people were saying the same hundreds of years ago, when there were cutpurses and other crims out and about in the streets of London ......


Oh, and highwaymen ..... and pirates ...... no pirates in London, obv ......

Sort of reminds me of the line from 300 (Sparta)


"come back with your shield... or on it"

There’s also a step up into Maria’s - much smaller but you need to negotiate the step and door at the same time. Olivelli has more room and if I remember right the toilets are on the ground floor. A consideration if steps are an issue The Lordship might be an option. Noise is not usually an issue. We’ve enjoyed various meals there. The ladies toilets are on the same floor as the tables (the gents may be upstairs). The staff are always friendly
