The State's lockdown rules have been put in place for a very good reason - to stop the spread of the Coronavirus - but one woman has admitted that, although she knows this, she disobeys, and steals out of her house during the early hours of each and every morning.
Ms. Tippy Toes, 63, watches her television until she can stand no more, then, clad in dark clothing, leaves her home and snoops around her neighbourhood in absolute silence.
She tiptoes in and out of gardens, rolls across lawns commando-style, climbs up trees, listens at bedroom windows by 'shinnying' up drainpipes to catch the snoring video diary, goes through her neighbours' trash cans for pretty colored bottles, removes notes for the milkman, (there has not been a delivery in eons) and scribbles down details of anything interesting, completing and editing the diary on the local residents after she has finally returned home around dawn.
Twice, she has had to hide, as headlights alerted her to the approach of a sheriff patrol car.
Despite having so far eluded the long arm of the law, police say they are aware of her movements, and are determined to catch her.
But, they say, people should not try to catch her on their own, but should, instead, call the sheriff's office, whereupon they will be given a crime number, and told to go back to bed.
Yep, what fun goes on in my head...
Stay tuned to the next episode of Ms. Tippy Toes.
