After arriving home from my 2 hour visit to the police station after the theft of my tyre I found my friend and yours that impeccable upstanding Observorian gentleman Richard doing a stirling job of cleaning up my street.
What a fine fellow he is. He gaily regaled me with his tales of working for the guy in the house in Bedford Street. As I approached him he kept backing off. I had do do some charming of my own to win his trust. I then walked with him to Bedford Street so he could point out the place where the man who was paying him to clean Howe and Bedford Streets lived. In the house next door was a chap called Sam doing some work for the house next door. I gave him a stern, but gentle warning, cause of course I would not want to offend him , that I would be checking up on his story with the man in the house. He gave me his word, and coming from such a fine gentleman I accepted it as his bond, that he was on the straight and narrow. The doghouse and pots that caused him the emabarrasment of being arrested, were purchased from a trolley operator, and the whole thing was one big misunderstanding. I walked away feeling a warm glow in my heart that we have citizens of the calibre of Richard uplifting our fine Suburb.
