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),

    • First of all, conversations with people who aren't Corbyn supporters are obviously going to tell you why those people didn't vote for him, aren't they? Second (and I don't know why I have to keep on saying this) the electoral system worked against him in terms of seats lost. If you look at the actual numbers of votes per party, yes Labour was behind, but not by as much as it appeared if just seats were counted. Thirdly, that poll was of "nearly 500" people who stopped voting Labour. That's not a very big sample, is it? Of those, 35% said it was because of Jeremy Corbyn's leadership (i.e. 65% had other reasons). Even upping the numbers to  500 people, 35% is 175. 10,269,051  people did actually vote Labour in that election. It's a long time since I used statistics for anything, so please correct me if I'm wrong, but I don't think anything you have said is "evidence"!
    • Dog kennel isn't a great name for a school. I agree that it's ridiculous for the name to put anyone off going there, but don't see any issue with them rebranding if the parents and children prefer a new name. The school is surrounded by historical 'groves' (reflected in the names of Camberwell Grove, Grove park and Grove Vale for example), so it's not a totally random name. 
    • It might help if there are body cams to record evidence and a presence maybe a deterrent but I very much doubt a park warden would intervene with obnoxious and violent thugs - children or not. We need police for that.  
    • I had a leaky toilet cistern and Niko came out the same day and not only fixed the leak but thoroughly cleaned off the years of calcium build-up. His attention to detail was matched by his kind humanity. The result was a completely renovated toilet which has never worked more efficiently as well as 'service with a smile'. MANY THANKS NIKO!!!
