I had my lovely campervan stolen on friday between 9pm and 7am saturday morning. It was parked on Crystal Palace Rd opposite number 32. Its a westfalia circa 1978 red and white, reg 0AA 231T. I think it was checked out earlier by two men who were parked up nearby for a while in a grey car - I know that's not much to go on but if you have a campervan look out because they are being stolen, and if anyone has any info /thoughts whatever please let me know
Heres a photo - not the best but gives an idea - and no it wasn't alarmed - something I hadn't got round to which is now a source of some regret - its usually parked elsewhere so I wasn't as alert to the theft issue as I could have been....

If you'd checked DVLA you'd have seen that it's taxed until 1 Mar 2013. So what was the point of the message?

Nice looking van


It's a bit too late to advise Mary to fit an alarm or tracker, but other dub owners should if they haven't already as they are old (and valuable)vehicles which aren't that hard to steal compared to modern cars and vans


Mary, I can advise putting a stolen notice on http://thelatebay.com/ in the stolen section as someone may have seen it


I hope you recover it soon as it is upsetting when a classic vehicle is stolen

Ouch. Sorry to hear about this Mary.

I hope it gets returned to you one way or another.


I was advised to always park with the front wheels turned so they are tightly in contact with the kerb. This makes it difficult to get apparatus under the wheels to lift the vehicle on to a flatbed.

    • What is the reason for the change in name? Just curious.
    • Why change it?  You’ve got a fantastic historic, memorable name and you want to change it for something innocuous.
    • From the school newsletter:   A New Name for Dog Kennel Hill As you know we have been discussing and consulting with stakeholders about a  name change at DKH for a while. Following engagement with staff, pupils and  families, we gathered all views on a name change for the school and after  careful consideration of the feedback, the Local Committee and the Trust have  agreed with changing the school name to Grove Primary School from  September 2025.  Over the next few months we will begin a gradual process of changing our  name on signage, our website and emails etc. We will keep you updated.  We will be looking at designing a new logo to match the new school name and  will be working closely with a graphic designer to get creative. The school  council will be actively involved in this process. We will share the results with  you as soon as a design has been agreed and confirmed. We will be creating a  new school jumper to replace the old one, once the logo has been finalised. We  will phase this in over time.  We know that this is a welcoming change for some and that there are  parents and children who will be sad about the change. However, as a school  we think it will be a positive change for our school community and we will  work together to ensure that the ethos and culture of DKH will remain!
    • if I think of Corbyn dealing with a global pandemic (a lot of his supporters and some of his family come from the woo end of the spectrum - his brother is a proper anti-vax nut), then the  invasion of Ukraine (Corbyn long record of not exactly condemning Putin even as he killed people on British soil and many other matters, I  really do shudder
