Re: Pick pockets

These people are professionals...got done myself last year on really a packed bus.. the thing is I did feel a slight nudge but you don't think anything is wrong.. I doubt they are from Accy.. professionals that have good transport...and someone who controls logistics, they move from town to town.. they could have moved to any other town in that area that day.

Country bumpkin!

How long have you lived in London?

No Artful Dodger ever tried to pick my pocket.

Someone did once try to snatch my briefcase outside the Opera House in Covent Garden, and I sadly broke my lovely umbrella with the Malacca handle..on his head.

I've told you before, handbags are always a risk.

and how many of us girls keep our life in our handbags... pictures of family and so on... that we could never replace:
I had my purse taken from my pocket in ossy a few weeks ago:
lesson learnt: only carry what I need:

It can happen to anyone at any time, young or old:

Re: Pick pockets

I may be wrong but are they 100% sure it is two women, if you zoom in on the picture the one at the front looks very much like he/she has a moustach
