Easties EL Posted February 13, 2010 Share Posted February 13, 2010 Last two weeks I've seen a few blokes late at night 11pm - 02:00am hanging around there and blokes sitting in cars waiting around. Maybe I'm being too OTT, thinking this is dodgy. But I hear about theifs scooping out properties before they attack them. Just a heads up for folks living nearby there.

ruffers Posted February 13, 2010 Share Posted February 13, 2010 Doesn't sound like scoping out a robbery to me. Link to comment https://www.eastdulwichforum.co.uk/topic/9986-thorncombe-road-glenngarry-road-trossachs-road/#findComment-296595 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chase Dulwit Posted February 14, 2010 Share Posted February 14, 2010 It's probably the police themselves. Or cabbies Link to comment https://www.eastdulwichforum.co.uk/topic/9986-thorncombe-road-glenngarry-road-trossachs-road/#findComment-296616 Share on other sites More sharing options...

sillywoman Posted February 14, 2010 Share Posted February 14, 2010 Thanks for this Eastie - we live on those streets. Our neighbours are away & we've just heard, & seen 2 young men trying to break into their house. Am calling the police now. thanks for the heads up.

sillywoman Posted February 14, 2010 Share Posted February 14, 2010 Nah, though they were pretty prompt. Did a drive round to see if I could spot the rat-bags but sadly no joy. Neighbours back now & wondering about the big boot-print on their front door!

sillywoman Posted February 15, 2010 Share Posted February 15, 2010 Yes, earlier in the evening I read Easties post to sensibleman, it made him think & he recalled noticing a couple of men hanging around on Glengarry this past week late at night (he often comes home from work between 11-12pm). There's nothing going on round here so reason to be hanging round if you see what I mean. So when we heard an odd thumping noise from the street outside we were extra aware of the possibility of something untoward happening. SM was out the door - like a rat up a drainpipe, while I stood on the sofa in our front window craning my neck to see whatever I could. What a right pair we must have looked, luckily it paid off in this instance.
