Tow truck to aisle two!
Yesterday, a young woman, agitated after being accused of shoplifting and arguing with staff at Woolworths, decided to use her car to redecorate the front of the Erindale Shopping Centre. The Erindale Shops are just down the road from my house and within walking distance - and I found out about it by reading the news online here and here! Thankfully no one was injured in the incident and the woman was promptly arrested. Apparently there was a fair bit of damage to doors and signage and those stupid kids rides you find in such shopping centres - I’m not complaining about the destruction of the latter! Anyway… as one of my house mates pointed out aptly, “That’s the south side of Canberra for you!”

“That’s the south side of Canberra for you!”
Hey! I live like 5 minutes walking distance from there… Although about 3 weeks ago on my way beck home from Erindale a 12 year old kid called me a fool for walking over his bike jump, which to me just looked like a small bit of dirt…

Good to see someone is reading my blog
I once heard a good sermon on wisdom and folly. One of the comments made was that one should think very carefully before referring to someone else as a fool. When properly understood it is a very strong term.
