It was sadly anything but a ‘Super Saturday’ for one loyal reader of The Steeple Times yesterday after her designer handbag was stolen in plain sight at The Botanist on Sloane Square.
Captured on camera with security guards on the premises also, the brazen thief – a black woman with black hair with a white stripe accompanied by a white woman with black hair and a colourful coat – helped herself to what she was not entitled at around 3.45pm.
Two stories to keep beside you
Fallen Security
That a man was able to stowaway in the landing gear of a plane in Nairobi and then fall from it into a Clapham garden is tragic; it highlights airline security is pathetic News last night that the body of a man fell from the landing gear of a Kenya Airways plane smashed into the […]
Trump Tower’s Troubles
Residents of Trump Tower are less than enthused that ‘The Donald’ won the race to become President of the United States of America They loathe the new security measures and many “ want out” Elsewhere, Trump’s first childhood home is expected to sell for ten times what it would if it were not connected to […]
Disappointingly for the victim, aside from the theft of an item worth several thousand pounds, the attitude of the management of The Botanist was not especially sympathetic.
Lamenting how she was treated after the crime had been identified, the victim told The Steeple Times: “I didn’t expect much, but they had a security guard and he didn’t even notice what was going on. They may as well have a Pug guarding their door. One of them would have been far more effective than the short-sighted beefcake they had there yesterday!”
Do you know this woman? If so, please report her to the Metropolitan Police or send her name to us at [email protected] and we will be sure to pass it on.

This thief very clearly knows this place well. If she is not caught, it will be an outrage.
Great skills…unlucky love! Who puts a valuable handbag on the floor in the first place? A moronic fool just like the great unwashed Steeples.
You sound like a right bloody c**t Dave. I hope someone robs your house and ties your wife up and beats your children. I am sure you might want some sympathy then. Well, you won’t be getting any here you filthy cretin.
Sound like? I am one you malodorous excuse for a man, Roger. Or is this you Matthew, using one of your numerous pseudonyms on this forum as a guise to anyone actually reading this! Now f@ck off mate and get back into the Kings Road Maccas to have your daily shower princess. Oh, and whilst you’re at it pick me up a small fries please.
Whomever you are, I am delighted you are quite so worked up at the genuine dislike you have attracted. Now go and enjoy your Scottish food like a nice little child, will you.
Dave – You are an apologist for a thief. What is wrong with you?
Is Dave an associate of the criminals? Only someone who was would say such a nasty thing.
Masks shouldn’t be allowed indoors. It might lead to more robberies behind the masks.
Sorry this happened to your friend Matthew, criminals seem to have upped their brazenness nowadays, the way they pilfer anything that’s not screwed to the floor. How I hope this or these scumbags are named and shamed and banged up for their troubles where, with luck, any males involved will end being banged and well and truly screwed themselves by a fellow gay gangster who forces said thief into being his and his gay mates whipping boy. I’d call that karma.
It is obvious it was premeditated, she must have done it there before.
The images on camera and video are very clear so it should be easy to identify and arrest the thief and her accomplice. Botanist should do a better security job,
This thieving toe rag needs to be tied to a post in the middle of Sloane Square and shamed. Put a banner on her and leave her there for a week.
Get this bitch Down Under!!!!!!!!!! I’ll deal with the thieving Sheila!!!!!!!!!!!!!! As for the nice girl they robbed — PWOAH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Find these demonic thieves and lock them up. They’re 1000% professional thieves!!!!
Shame on police for not finding them.
