Pride and joy theft :(

Why is everyone saying they'll keep a look out?

I'm not the most trusting of people, sorry, and I'd want to know HOW the bike was stolen.

If for example, it was left unlocked at Oxford Circus, while the owner popped into H&M.Hennes for half an hour, and returned to find their unlocked bike had vanished......I wouldn't keep an eye out at all.

Its seems to be becoming more common that people have their bikes stolen, but didn't really secure the bike at all, then come crying on here. If the bike is not secured, what would anyone expect? As the Sage Dale says, This Is London My Friend.

I still haven't forgotten the arsehole that came crying about their stolen bike, and to gain sympathy, lied and said that the bike was locked with TWO Fagh Minis! Yes, he scarpered and never returned after I challenged his lie.

I'm hoping gloved pony replies, and gives some (honest) background to the theft. Silence, when asked to add info, normally isn't a very good sign. But I shall wait before forming a real opinion.

come on now, shit happens and people get upset and people lie to protect their feelings. It's quite common ya know.
