I left my shopping bags in the trolley (alongside two other trolleys already there) in the space near the door in Sainsbury's Starbucks earlier today, and then sat down for coffee on the comfy seats further away. It was a stupid thing to do, and I've been doing it for years, and when I went to leave I discovered the bags had gone.


I thought it might have been taken by mistake at first but there was no other trolley left in its place. I went through the cctv recording with the security man and we did see the bags lifted by a woman who had just walked in from outside, took the bags, and walked out again. She was accompanied by an older woman with a shopping bag on wheels and they left straight away. I had assumed the point of going through the cctv was so we could then see where they went outside but there are no cameras in the car park so it was a bit of a wasted exercise, except for me to know they were deliberately taken.


So, this is just to make you all aware there are thieves in the area (said with a wry smile). Luckily for me, it wasn't my big shop, just a ?35-ish top-up - bad enough.

Why on earth are there no cameras in the car park, particularly as weren't some cars stolen from there a year or so back?


Does anybody know the reason?


Did the security guy report this to the police in case the women were known to them?


Sorry about your shopping Nunheadian :(

If you search a lot of Police Forces issue pictures from

supermarket CCTVs when theft happens.


Can't see any from the Met though (I see CCTV images from

worse crimes),

    • It looks as though there will be 10 of us!  We are going to Love Dulwich again for a lunch and will checkout their 'normal' menu - from what we remember from the last 2 times we went = there was plenty to satisfy every one and they were happy to take party bookings.- Hubby and I have worked out that if all our daughters, grandchildren and great grandchildren were  to come - there would be 20 of us!! As it is - the Essex  family branch live too far away to come over for an evening - so we will meet up in Essex at a later date.
    • Tend to use 37 or 42 bus as rarely been able to find parking space. Sods Law - there is sometimes a few spaces when I bus it.!
    • Just to warn anyone thinking of employing or engaging Chris and Anna Richmond, that nothing has changed.  The accounts above from others are all too familiar.  A job that we were told would take between 6-8 months is now entering its 23rd month.  They have taken enormous amounts of money from us, finished nothing, and the quality of the work that they have delivered is poor to substandard.  They take no responsibility themselves - there are endless excuses and everything is someone else's fault.  They do not care about the impact that their actions have on anyone else.   They are, at best, chaotic. They have not delivered as the designers or project managers that they claim to be. They are rarely on site to monitor the progress or quality of the job that is being delivered and they and manage their largely non-English speaking workforce by WhatsApp and Google translate.  There has been little evidence that they employ the skilled tradespeople needed to lay tiles, install bathrooms and kitchens, decorate and complete to the standard that we have paid for.  I cannot stress enough, that if you are currently in discussion with Anna and Chris Richmond about a future job or have paid them money up front for a job that they have slipped in delivering, to quit while you are ahead.  Things won't get better.
    • Hi All, I’d like to recommend Aaron Manser, who several others on this forum have also used. Aaron is an excellent plasterer, and has just finished a complicated piece of plastering work for me, including a large expanse of ceiling. His work has been of the highest quality, his attention to detail is exceptional, and he’s also very quick, and tidy too. As an added bonus he has a lovely singing voice. Happy to provide any photos of the work he has done. This is the third time over the past few years I’ve had Aaron back. Aaron Manser - 07773 410661 Regards, Damien
