    What does your day look like today?

    Man caught on camera stealing… a dog bowl: ‘Why?’

    I managed an aged care facility for many years and for several months ashtrays we kept outside for the use of our elderly residents were stolen. Even the cigarette butts were taken. We eventually had to chain the ashtray to a post. If the culprit was so desperate we would have given him/her one...
