    Cousin again.
    Had a great idea for a parcel.

    Wrapped up a brick from the back lane in paper from the bin at the back of the office.

    Turned the paper inside out so it looked new.

    Wrapped and tied with some shiny pink ribbon from the same rubbish.

    Took it down the road 200m and put it about a foot from the edge of the bitumen.

    We sat under a tree, about 15m away behind a low fence on the mine drain reserve..

    Lots of cars slowed down, looked and drove on.

    One driver decided to run over the wrapped box parcel.

    The car went BANG big time when it hit the brick.
    The car tires were about 4 inch wide on spoked wooden wheels.

    Unfortunately on the inside of the wrapper was the business address.

    We got the biggest lecture and punishment from aunty.
    Learnt lesson cover tracks.
