I am so sorry to hear of the awful attack on Barrie's  mother, I hope she 
recovers soon. Also the highjacking in Alfred st at gunpoint . The endless 
mindless car window smashing.  house break ins. Is there no longer any 
security operating in Observatory??   And the area around Alfred,Crown 
Milner and Strubens rd seems to be under constant attack, what is going on?
