On Boxing night someone jemmied the block of spikes on top of the gate to our back garden & climbed over and stole our bikes from the shed and rear garden. Our neighbour has security lights that would have been activated but they were clearly determined and not put off ! I believe we are the 3rd house in the street this month alone, please be vigilant.

I reported my son's bike theft to the Police late Summer. They were very good at the time, taking details etc. but then all of a sudden received a CALL phone call on my phone just before Christmas. One of those phone calls that you're not sure about but don't want to ignore?


Spoke to somebody who said that "due to mis-communication etc. etc. and somebody their end not seeing it through, then the case was now closed".


At the time I was busy looking after children etc. and just agreed with them.

Sorry to hear about your bike thefts.It must have been an unpleasant and awful experience.

Burglars these days don't seem to stop at anything, and nothing seems to put them off, if their determined enough.

I do hope they get caught and sent to prison.

The British Transport Police were investigating son's bike theft not the actual Police but if this low level crime is closed so easily then thieves will just carry on and surely this just escalates to home burglaries etc.?


When my son asked station staff at ED that night about his bike they said it was happening at the station all the time.

    • I am  ill in bed with Covid. It's not that I "can't be bothered" to read things. I am feeling crap and don't have the mental  energy at the moment. I am not "brushing stuff aside and pleading ignorance." I am truthfully saying when I don't presently know enough about something to be able to comment. I have always been very careful to try to  differentiate between fact and opinion in both  my posts and other people's, and I am not clear what your point is. And I am certainly not trying to wind anybody up. This is a forum. If you don't want to respond to my posts, that's up to you. I'm not sure why you feel the need to announce it.   
    • @NewWave I know how you feel. Like you, I've lived and spent prolonged periods of time in some pretty crazy places and always thought I could handle a bunch of kids. But, no - they got to me and I was shaking like a leaf afterwards. That's what age does to us.  But I did engage with them, so bear that in mind.  My advice would be to never let anything like that stop you doing the things you love. I'm certainly not going to stop using the park, there's no way they get to take away our cherished spaces!  If you see them, just change tack and keep out of their way. My dog won't even go that way again, so that's that problem solved. (If I see them again, I'm going to keep taking photos from a safe distance). 
    • Truly horrific. Being passive or fighting back is what many of us think about by violent theft. 
    • What ridiculous waste of money
