The VIGILANT society

Just in.
Back home...(SRI LANKA) a recent pamphlet circulated around due to the rising number of break-ins from...
The VIGILANT SOCIETY.

Instructions:

Close the doors.

Get a watchdog (yeah right! OUR watch dog NEEDS watching!!).

Call the police, and call your neighbors,

And get up in the night… (Which should come first in order I guess…but this is how my sister recited it to me…I’m speculating that she went out of order)

If you hear FUNNY noises

Further instructions: (I added these...hopefully when I get home these will get circulated. Very useful advice that was overlooked)

Given the escalation in burglaries around the locality…strict and constant vigilance is advocated. Those who are allergic to dog fur can try geese. They are thought to make excellent watch-pets (not to mention excellent dinners). They can be effective in restraining intruders through mild force (includes bones crunches).

YOU DON’T BELIEVE ME???

Due to the horrendous stories of open-door burglaries, it is also recommended that household residents LOCK the doors after closing them. And DON’T leave the key under the favorite flower pot.

Residents have to memorize the local emergency numbers and it is NOT 911!!!

And most importantly get a insurance cover for your house and belongings.

Well this is another day’s work…this is Roshi signing off. Love to you all.
