And they 14 00:00:46,600 --> 00:00:50,159 Speaker 2: came prepared because they had angle grinder bolt cutters and 15 00:00:50,200 --> 00:00:54,040 Speaker 2: they've sliced open our back fence and basically rolled the 16 00:00:54,080 --> 00:00:56,680 Speaker 2: buggy out and taken it for a joy ride all 17 00:00:56,680 --> 00:01:00,800 Speaker 2: over the Durac the golf course there. So, oh my god. Yeah, 18 00:01:00,840 --> 00:01:03,360 Speaker 2: and not the best no, And look. 19 00:01:03,480 --> 00:01:05,520 Speaker 1: You know, I know that there's plenty of people that 20 00:01:05,680 --> 00:01:07,800 Speaker 1: you know, even over the weekend, someone was held up 21 00:01:07,800 --> 00:01:10,720 Speaker 1: at knife point in Wolagi, so we know that there's 22 00:01:10,840 --> 00:01:14,240 Speaker 1: terrible stuff that continues to happen. So to some the 23 00:01:14,280 --> 00:01:17,399 Speaker 1: golf buggy being stolen may not sound as bad, but 24 00:01:17,440 --> 00:01:19,759 Speaker 1: at the end of the day, it's people in your yard, 25 00:01:20,319 --> 00:01:23,920 Speaker 1: and it sounds like it's something that's you know, they've 26 00:01:23,920 --> 00:01:26,560 Speaker 1: got form doing over recent weeks. 27 00:01:27,000 --> 00:01:29,760 Speaker 2: Yeah, that's right. And you know, I look at you know, 28 00:01:29,840 --> 00:01:32,640 Speaker 2: the Facebook community pages and from what I can see, 29 00:01:32,720 --> 00:01:34,919 Speaker 2: you know, people trying to take them from the golf club. 30 00:01:35,080 --> 00:01:38,559 Speaker 2: There's been multiple fests of buggies in the last two weeks. 31 00:01:38,560 --> 00:01:41,840 Speaker 2: As you said, I know of five, but they're all 32 00:01:41,880 --> 00:01:44,920 Speaker 2: going in and just cutting open people's back fences. It's 33 00:01:44,920 --> 00:01:47,280 Speaker 2: an easy target, these golf buggies. But you know when 34 00:01:47,280 --> 00:01:51,919 Speaker 2: you've got a back fence that someone is actually cutting open, 35 00:01:51,960 --> 00:01:54,800 Speaker 2: not even a gate, like they're actually cutting the fence 36 00:01:55,040 --> 00:01:57,600 Speaker 2: apart to just drag your buggy out, which is going 37 00:01:57,680 --> 00:02:00,800 Speaker 2: to go flat after an hour anyway, it doesn't make sense. 38 00:02:00,840 --> 00:02:02,960 Speaker 2: So it was dumped in a bunker full of water, 39 00:02:03,040 --> 00:02:04,760 Speaker 2: Like the bunker's water got water in it because of 40 00:02:04,800 --> 00:02:10,000 Speaker 2: the rain, so it's drowned. And yeah, your golf clubs everywhere, 41 00:02:10,080 --> 00:02:13,240 Speaker 2: and but yeah, it's just yeah to disgrace, so. 42 00:02:13,320 --> 00:02:15,560 Speaker 1: Ruthie are they like with the other ones that have 43 00:02:15,639 --> 00:02:17,960 Speaker 1: been stolen as well and with yours. So by the 44 00:02:18,000 --> 00:02:20,680 Speaker 1: sounds of it, after it's stolen, runs out a battery, 45 00:02:20,840 --> 00:02:23,000 Speaker 1: they dump it and then it's rule so then it 46 00:02:23,040 --> 00:02:23,440 Speaker 1: can't be. 47 00:02:23,480 --> 00:02:27,520 Speaker 2: Used again, exactly. And we were just really lucky that 48 00:02:27,960 --> 00:02:30,840 Speaker 2: we know the caretakers so they actually got it on 49 00:02:30,880 --> 00:02:34,200 Speaker 2: the law like their club mooer and just yeah, dragged it, 50 00:02:34,600 --> 00:02:37,720 Speaker 2: dragged it back for us. But yeah, yeah, like it's 51 00:02:37,720 --> 00:02:39,320 Speaker 2: just one of those things. You know, you want to 52 00:02:39,360 --> 00:02:41,560 Speaker 2: have some nice things, but then you know you can't 53 00:02:41,560 --> 00:02:42,240 Speaker 2: have nice things. 54 00:02:42,960 --> 00:02:44,839 Speaker 1: But the thing is you work bloody hard for those 55 00:02:44,960 --> 00:02:47,040 Speaker 1: nice things as well, you know, like this is this 56 00:02:47,120 --> 00:02:49,480 Speaker 1: is the point as so many of us do, you know, 57 00:02:49,919 --> 00:02:52,720 Speaker 1: and and we all you know, we work hard, You 58 00:02:52,760 --> 00:02:55,440 Speaker 1: pay your taxes, you do the right thing, you contribute 59 00:02:55,440 --> 00:02:58,040 Speaker 1: to you know, to the community. And then when you 60 00:02:58,160 --> 00:03:01,160 Speaker 1: have I don't even know what to call them, little 61 00:03:01,200 --> 00:03:05,040 Speaker 1: thugs coming and cutting the fence in that way, it's 62 00:03:05,120 --> 00:03:09,079 Speaker 1: an invasion of your privacy and your space as well. 63 00:03:09,160 --> 00:03:11,800 Speaker 2: Yeah, exactly, we've got chickens in our yard now, just 64 00:03:11,840 --> 00:03:15,360 Speaker 2: pushing the chickens off the buggy, you know, like just 65 00:03:15,360 --> 00:03:18,880 Speaker 2: just like they own the place. You know, it's really disappointing. 66 00:03:18,919 --> 00:03:21,560 Speaker 2: But the fact that they weren't wearing any gloves, like 67 00:03:21,600 --> 00:03:24,400 Speaker 2: they weren't covering their faces. You know, all the videos 68 00:03:24,440 --> 00:03:28,440 Speaker 2: I've got is it very clearly shows who these people are. Oh, 69 00:03:28,720 --> 00:03:32,840 Speaker 2: very easily identifiable. But they're just just haven't chatted between 70 00:03:32,880 --> 00:03:36,160 Speaker 2: each other and they don't roll the buggy out, not 71 00:03:36,280 --> 00:03:36,600 Speaker 2: at all. 72 00:03:36,760 --> 00:03:40,240 Speaker 1: So Ruth's at least five taken in your area over 73 00:03:40,280 --> 00:03:42,920 Speaker 1: the last couple of weeks. What you know, what's sort 74 00:03:42,960 --> 00:03:44,800 Speaker 1: of been the update from the police. Do they know 75 00:03:44,840 --> 00:03:45,880 Speaker 1: who these thugs are? 76 00:03:46,880 --> 00:03:49,120 Speaker 2: I think that's probably a fair idea because it is 77 00:03:49,280 --> 00:03:52,200 Speaker 2: from what I understand, it is the same group getting around. 78 00:03:53,080 --> 00:03:56,000 Speaker 2: So my buggy was seen with six of them hanging 79 00:03:56,040 --> 00:03:59,600 Speaker 2: off of it, and then the CCTV footage I've seen 80 00:03:59,640 --> 00:04:02,880 Speaker 2: of others it is it is a similar kind of group, 81 00:04:02,920 --> 00:04:05,240 Speaker 2: and you can some of them are pretty just easy 82 00:04:05,280 --> 00:04:09,600 Speaker 2: to distinguish between the videos. So yeah, they're definitely aware 83 00:04:09,640 --> 00:04:13,600 Speaker 2: and hopefully can be caught soon rather than later. 84 00:04:13,840 --> 00:04:16,360 Speaker 1: Absolutely, well, let us know what else. You're here out 85 00:04:16,400 --> 00:04:19,800 Speaker 1: your way, and you know, if there is any update, Ruthie, 86 00:04:19,800 --> 00:04:22,719 Speaker 1: before I let you go, Eddie's just messaged through and said, Hi, 87 00:04:22,839 --> 00:04:25,880 Speaker 1: Katie and crew, could you please ask Ruth when she's 88 00:04:25,920 --> 00:04:28,640 Speaker 1: coming back to the Pistol Club.
