Margaret from Hutt Central

Hi everyone, last Friday night about 8:45pm there was a heavy knock on my back door. I opened the door, (the screen/security door was locked) and there stood a man, who introduced himself as Tony!
He desperately needed the toilet. I suggested he go behind the bus shelter, but, he needed more than a wee! Oh dear! Anyway, I refused apologetically, but there wasn’t any way I was letting a stranger into my house! Sorry Tony, wherever you are. It would have been easy to say okay, but, I couldn’t risk it!
Maggie of Waterloo Road.
