hippy-
Cheers. The makeshift wheelie bins and scaffolding + the police turning up as they were leaving the second time seemed to have done the trick.
@Oliver Schick - its more of a cage with a padlock than a bread bin, and in Wapping, and as I don't use it, I think I'll let one of the users deal with it from here. Same applies to use of cameras etc, it is right outside my front door, and they did threaten my neighbour with kicking her door down so I don't want to interfere more. My building has scaffolding around it atm, and the local thieves are having a field day (3 robberies in one weekend!) Maybe the council will sort something more secure...edit - work computer has logged me in as a new user!

Hi, Ive just foiled a bike robbery outside my house on a bike cage - 4 dudes with a angle grinder- I've called the police, but the lock is 90% cut through, and I don't know who any of the bike owners are. Do you think the thieves will come back to finish the job? Anyone think of anything I could do to stop the bikes being stolen tonight. Bearing in mind its right outside my front door, and I don't want to attract undue attention from people who steal bikes...
Cheers
