Shifty character walking up and down Piermont Road this morning

[Lamo]

Probably nothing but just in case and due to all posts regarding burglaries and attempted van theft I thought I would mention it. As I was getting into my car this morning it looked like a guy was casing out all houses on piermont road. He then got into a white van and sat there for a while. As I said it is probably nothing but be on your guard.

I have reported description of character and registration of van to police.

Good work. Sounds shifty.

Could be looking for stuff in front gardens? Or that's what he would say if he gets asked.

Had a guy with a white van knock on my door last week saying my gutters were FULL and really, really needed cleaning out, just ?25, they would cause damage if they weren't cleaned out, just 25 quid, and if only I took up his offer it would only be ?25... Still continued when I said that I had had the roof and gutters fixed a couple of weeks before...

How he can see how full my gutters were without going up there is beyond me. He must be a very clever man. Or a scam.

So maybe he was checking out all the gutters on Piermont Road...?
