Just been robbed!

THanks everyone :)

rennie, I was really lucky that my key was in my coat pocket and not in my bag!

Worstthing though is the loss of my bag. It was handmade by my little sis and took her hours to make and was a real labour of love. It was the first bag she'd ever made (she's an apprentice leatherworker) and it's irreplaceable...

You might get it back. When my mum was mugged she found her bag a couple of hours later (minus valuables) in a bin near where the mugging took place...

She was so upset when it happened she started wondering around the area looking in the bins/behind bushes, etc, and she ended up finding her bag!

Someone might spot it and hand it in too...
 
thanks :)

If anyone sees my bag can they let me know/contact the police (if someone's walking about with it)? Purple leather with a patchwork effect and can fit an A4 binder. It's got two purple leather handles and can be carried under a shoulder. Really, really noticeable. I love it to bits and I'd do anything to get it back.
 
Sorry to hear about this :(

And if the police do find the bag and keep it for fingerprinting etc. make sure they give you ALL of the reference numbers, both crime number and property identifier. The property store is one of the worst organised bits of the Lambeth Met. On my experience, you'll have to e-mail and phone call them regularly for its return.
 
horrible, sorry to hear this :mad:

i always find the early mornings (as well as late night) particulary scary as there are hardly any people out...i go nowhere without my bike in the mornings.
 
I must admit, I don't like being out and about at 7am, but it's the cold and dark that puts me off. I've never felt unsafe. I hope you get your bag back treefrog
 
Only just seen this TF. That so shit especially about your bag, i hope they catch the fucker and its nice to hear that the coppers were helpful too.

I hope that this doesnt affect how you feel about Brixton as others have said it comes in waves i have only lived here 3 years but even i notice the waves from time to time.

(((((TF & Her bag)))))
 
Brilliant news! Some builder found my bag (minus wallet, phone and some other stuff) in his yard where the guy must have lobbed it. He brought it round on Friday night! Didn't leave any details but he's a star wherever he is. Thank you sir!

That's what happened to me when someone nicked my handbag from my sister's kitchen (we were stoned and left the back door unlocked :o ). Someone found it at the end of their garden and called me. It's so nice to be reunited with the bag - even if the valuables are gone.

Restores your faith in human nature doesn't it?
 
just seen this - glad you got your bag back. its often the things with little monetary value that are worth the most to us, eh?

its a shame he didnt mark the homework and leave it in the bag for you!

hope you are ok and the PGCE is going well
