Angle grinding at 3am

[clockworkorange]

No pun intended with this thread. It's a serious question.

Last night at 330am I was woken by sound of angle grinding!

Somewhere in the vicinity of kelmore grove, oakhurst grove, the gardens.

Was I going mad? Anybody else hear it?

Wondering if it was bike theft.

Sounds dodgy (surely no-one does DIY at 3AM)

Do you have one of those new bike hangers nearby?

This from Penge Tourist Board FB page..

Oh lord. Is there really a fb page?

[clockworkorange]

None of those thankfully.

Mystery.

Hmm. M.O. of motorbike thieves - a cheap rechargeable grinder will go through even the thickest chain in a couple of mins. Happened to me in the West End in Jan.

Some time ago a work colleague watched in amazement as a couple of men angle ground the wheel clamp but on their car.

[ruffers]

Bike thieves for sure.

Not just an fb page, but also a Twitter account and this website: http://pengetouristboard.co.uk/

There were roadworks on East Dulwich Road that only stared at midnight. They picked up and moved the cars that were parked there. Perhaps they were grinding off the old road markings down to the Tesco dangerous pedestrian crossing. Slightly more warning now about the layout, but can't see any other completed roadworks.

Yes it was VERY loud
