Mosman underwear thief: no longer at large

I didn’t want to make a deal of it when it happened, but I was robbed a few months ago.

It was the first warm spring day in a while and I decided to hang some washing out on the line. When I came home, two socks were missing, and one of my favourite pairs of underwear! I liked to think it was just a strong gust of wind, but deep down, I knew that someone really weird in Mosman was stalking my washing. Possibly the same person that had stolen Jonathan’s iPod, since it was around the same time. But there was a bit of a buzz in the news too, about an alleged “Mosman underwear thief” that was on the prowl..

To be fair, I’ve not really thought about it much until I heard this morning that the stealthy cat burglar had been caught, but no charges had been laid!

The photo took me by surprise as I realised this was not the first time I’d come face to face with this feline felon; he had taken me by surprise when found lazing on our porch on a sunny December afternoon once… right under the clothes line, funnily enough.

So, lesson to be learnt; if you ever find your unmentionables missing, mention it to your neighbours.. particularly the ones that own curious cats. Have a happy Tuesday!

UPDATE: This just in, a goat is being held for armed robbery. Yes, that is right, it is the week of animals taking over with criminal activities!
