Last night, Monday 9th, at around 8.30 I was stationary at the traffic lights on East Dulwich Grove/Peckham Rye when a scumbag on a cycle came alongside my passenger door. He said you just hit me, i knew i hadnt but before i could lock my door, he opened it and grabbed my coat from the front seat. We both spotted my bag (which was under the coat) at the same time, and both grabbed for it - he won ! He cycled off through the alley between the flats. Luckily there was nothing of value in the bag - apart from my reading glasses - i'm blind without them.

I just wanted to warn everyone to be careful at traffic lights and to make sure you lock your doors.

My mum was robbed at traffic lights-they smashed her window and took her bag off the passenger seat before he knew what was happening. I don't put my bag on passenger seat now. How cheeky to have opened your door. Glad they got nothing of value to them and hope you're ok.
Sorry to hear about your terrible experience, I never lock my door but my wife always tells me to, you always think nothing will happen, but its a unfortunate reminder we all need to be more careful. Hope you're ok and glad that at least they didn't make off with any valuables.
Thanks everyone, yes i'm fine but was very upset at the time - i think i felt quite stupid! I did call the police and they were very good and drove me round to see if we could spot him, but no luck. He was white, probably 30 - 40 wearing dark clothes and it was a dark bike. He had short balding hair and he looked rough - probably a skag head lol. I'll know him if i see him again - so he better watch out.

    • I thought the most they sell in terms of hot food at londis is like pastries and sausage rolls and for hot drinks its like costa coffee but its always a convenience store. Doesn’t look too bad in my opinion considering that shop has been closed down ever since i moved here
    • Hi Busterb, Yesterday I turned up with a scanner & towels, hoping to take a deceased tabby down to TNV. The body was moved moments before arrival & had not been turned in to any vets, rescues or animal hospitals. I am wondering if this could have been the same cat & if someone just tried to move the tabby further away from the road. Please be warned, viewers discretion is advised. but this is what the deceased tabby looked like: https://www.facebook.com/groups/900015513463302/permalink/3729980853800073/  In any case, if you haven't been able to get someone to scan or take down to a vet, I can scan tomorrow morning.
    • Wholeheartedly recommend Aria. He was polite, responsive and sorted our leak, from an old tap on an old plumbing system, with no bother and on same day.
