To the arsewipe(s) who took all our daughters washing from the line Friday night, keep it (though she's pissed off over her missing clothes)
But as you've broken our two year old granddaughter's heart by STEALING her first bike ... a RED BALANCER BIKE ... the ultimate crime has been committed and when we catch up with you her three uncles want to practise a little sharia law. Two thefts ... two hands !!
Though it's doubtful you'll read this (or can read at all), be aware that someone will and retribution shall be ours.
Taken from top end of Hills Rd not far from the well-known State House street opposite the park.
