The Surprised Burglar

Let me tell you the story of yesterday’s burglary. The mystery of the missing silver was discovered by the butler who alerted security. The guards disturbed the burglar as he circled the perimeter fence looking for an escape route.

He had entered the house without disturbing a soul. He slithered with uncertainty from room to room until he discovered the Fern family silver.
‘Ah, perfect. I’ve come to the end of my search’, he muttered as he stuffed the silver into his sack.
The burglar made a hasty exit. As he reached the perimeter fence, he felt a hand on his collar. ‘You have been caught on camera. You must return the silver.’ said the guard sternly.

The Mystery Visitor at the Silver River Computer Centre

On the last Saturday in October Bert, an actor, went to work in the Silver River Computer Centre.

To his horror he heard a mystery visitor open a door. He could see her further ahead entering the cellar. She was wearing a burnt orange skirt and a purple shirt with a turquoise collar.

As she turned around he saw the colour of her eyes and knew that she was not just a visitor but a terrible monster!

Yesterday at The Perfect House there was a feature about the burglar who stole the refrigerater and the familys pet giraffe. The buglar put a curse on the owner of the house and it was so serious the nurse had to come round and give him medicine. The stranger was wearing armour with a large collar. He apparently had to measure a millilitre of water. He accidently left behind a dollar said chief police Mr Jack. He then squirmed out of the house and under the fence.

After The Early Surf
There was a perfect little girl who went to surf early with her tennis partner. On this day while the girl was away surfing a burglar came and stole her camera, furniture and 1000 dollars. She was stern and called her tennis partner to come around with a measuring tape to measure how much damage there was on the modern mirror. Later that night they watched an actor serving a tennis ball into a litre jug. They also read a feature about a nurse with a pet giraffe.

The burglar smiled but what he didn't know is that the griffe had a special coller on.The thing that was special was it had a camra in it and the police could see what was happening and the police burst into the house and put the burglar in jail.

A STRANGER IN ARMOUR.

Early one morning in September an actor was at the harbour to feature in a modern film called A Stranger in Armour. The actor stood at the stern of the ship watching the surf almost getting soaked. The camera was rolling when the actor’s partner, who was a nurse, appeared on the kerb only millimetres from the camera and spoiled a perfect scene. The producer looked sternly at the nurse. "Sorry" said the nurse" I was just bringing a litre of water from the refrigerator to my partner so that he wouldn't get hot under the collar". "Well you have just cost our firm hundreds of dollars" said the producer, "now go serve him and be on your way please, we must start the next chapter of A Stranger in Armour”.
