So my mum has left the house at 3 am on Wednesday the 24th. Mum usually starts work in Central London at around 4 am and has been taking the same bus for the past 5 years. She sat at the bus stop and was the only person there. Her bus was due in one minute. She noticed a black male in a hoodie walking towards the bus stop coming from forest hill road(coop side), he stood at the bus stop with her and seemed to be waiting for the same bus. Mum hasn't noticed anything suspicios as usually there are other people taking the same bum she just thought that he was going to work or something. Shortly after his arrival he grabbed my mums handbag and started pulling it and took it, run up approximately 100 meters up dunstans road and got into a dark van and drove off towards lordship lane etc.

mum got back home straight after and was obviously really scared and shaken up by the whole situation. She is still complaining about a pain in her lef arm which is where she had the handbag and has troubles sleeping and is now really scared to go to work.

Mum he most of here documents in her handbag including her bank cards which are now obviously cancelled, her mobile phone and her polish id.

Please if anyone has seen/heard anything or maybe has found anything in the streets such as her id please get in touch.

It's a real shame that an area as lovely as east Dulwich is disturb by idiots like that man. Peace. Magda

Really sorry this has happened to your mother. I always walk with a personal alarm in the evening or early morning, so if I'm ever approached or feel threatened the loud screaming should scare them away or bring attention to the scene. I got mine online and only paid ?5 for it. Perhaps you could by one for her.

      Not sure about changing hands but the Peckham Rye one is open and hasn’t had any random closures. Our child is very happy there but there was a resolved Ofsted complaint half way through last year.  Things don’t look good for the Devon nursery owned by the same company - looks like loads of issues with Ofsted which can be seen in its latest report.

      Have a great nhs dentist accepting patients

      By Sue · Posted

      I was in Forest Hill Road today, just past the Rye, and noticed there is a dentist next to the Herne (pub) that has NHS signs outside. I've never had any problems getting NHS dental treatment in East Dulwich, and I get regular check ups. I've been to three  different dental practices here over the years, all with NHS treatment. I think the difficulties are in other parts of the country. Malumbu has a good explanation above. I didn't hear the Radio 4 programme, but I'm guessing that a  radio programme is not going to have time to say where you CAN easily get NHS treatment, and is bound to focus on the negatives and the horror stories, otherwise it would be very boring! ETA: Re children's teeth, I think the major issue is not lack of dentists, it is children being given sugary food, drinks and confectionery which rots their teeth. The education of parents needs to be about this, not just about tooth brushing. And in some cases the poor diet may also be due to lack of money for healthy food. Though of course the lack of dentists doesn't help, if  the tooth rotting can't be rectified by fillings or extraction.

      Well, I hope you like what you see, the hot air, lack of answers and continual blaming things on the last Government and the made up blackhole, I find are nauseating. The man needs to see reality, because I'd guess that if we had a snap election tomorrow and based on the first six months of this parliament, Labour would get trounced. When the election does finally happen and if that isn't before the people rise up and throw this lot out, Labour will not be voted back in for a millennium.
