i've said this before (and been shot down by people who believe that the forum is an appropriate and effective place to return lost property), but i don't think that the forum is - someone's lost their keys (in this instance) and if they don't come on here they've no hope of getting them back


i guess that it can be useful to take the approach that some others have and post 'i found [e.g. an ipod] and in case it's yours i've handed it into [e.g. the park office; the police station] so go and ask for them there' but taking things home indefinitely doesn't seem right or likely to be effective


Keys i guess are perhaps less of an issue as they might be easily replaced


has anyone ever successfully returned anything via the forum?

Yes, glasses, jewellery, kids toys and clothes and a watch from recollection but you're right pk (but no one's ever shot you down for saying so), the best thing is to hand them in somewhere and then announce on here that they've been handed in.

    • DKH was two form entry, it is now one form entry to cope with the fact it was far more under subscribed than other schools in the area. They had actually combined year groups into single classes, 3/4 and 5/6.  When a school changes name, it’s usually because of a bad reputation perhaps the results.  The new name is dry with no history unlike its current name. It’s a very sketchy decision. It’s an expensive vanity project for someone.  What  will happen if the name change does not increase applications to the school?     
    • @first mate I assume Alice made a mistake, as she removed her reaction.  I was wondering about park wardens. As I said, there was one there last night, who was incredibly helpful and proactive. As well as bringing me to the police, he caught up with a young guy on a bike who'd earlier been the victim of an attempted theft by these kids and linked him up with the police too. But I do wonder, as I've only very occasionally seen him riding around, how many they have and what hours they patrol. I've no doubt they'd be a strong deterrent if they had a better presence. They were nowhere to be seen the first time around.  Update: I've just found this: https://services.southwark.gov.uk/community-safety/community-wardens The guy in the photo at the bottom of the page was the lovely warden of last night and I've just now remembered him telling me he's based in Burgess Park. Anyway, there needs to be more of them, as I rarely see one in Peckham.     
    • Some of us oldies would associate Grove with the old Grove Vale School (which I went to in the 1950s)
