Oh oh oh !

Is the safety guard allowed to enter your driveway without your permission??
Is it allowed to look inside your van in the driveway without permission?

What is the safety guard good for? Controlling the neighboorhood? Make sure
you´ve cleaned your teeth?

I remember a story a sports friend became an eye-witness.
Italy, they were waiting in their car for the ferry while a woman walk along
the cars and sold the tickets.
She worked kind of this way: "Äh, 1 middlesize car, 3 persons, 1 surfboard
(on the cartop), xyz lire please."

So, there were 2 men with 2 surfboards on their car ( a long kombi)  in
front of my sports friend.
When the 2 men see they would have to pay for the boards, they took the
boards and pushed them inside the car. Crazy, but it worked. They were
sitting heads to the side, with the bords over their heads.
The woman came up and said: "One long car, 2 persons, and (deeper look
inside)... 2 surfboards, yzx lire please."

They are among us, everywhere...

All the best and - heavily head shaking

Jochen
