Blood On The Dancefloor
|
You will forgive us for being so slack with our Australian Princess update after hearing of the shock and horror we have suffered this afternoon.
On our way to pay bills after purchasing some goods at a recently updated shopping centre, a beanie-clad local decided to try and snatch our bag (we're not bloody joking). Of course, if this were any other day we would probably have allowed the thief to run off with our rather empty bag, but no, not today.
For you see, today we had a copy of the brand new MADONNA ALBUM in said bag. In fact, it had only been purchased a good 5 minutes prior to the incident.
Initial reaction was to hold onto the bag for dear life, but the crafty theif would not have any of this, and, quite forcefully, continued to yank at the bag.
It all ended with us whacking him across the head with a clenched fist, him falling to the ground - out cold, and us spending our Friday afternoon being questioned at the police station about what happened.
No charges have been pressed on either side.

Way to go, IAR! Some Friday afternoon fisting!
Seriously, glad to hear you're OK and congratulations on overcoming the attempted theft (albeit with a sore hand, no doubt).
(Did the fist connecting with his head make a dramatic, cinematic sound? Or was it like a flat, bony, soundless thud?)

To be honest, whatever noise it made would have been overshadowed by the riotous grunt that came from my mouth when i clocked him.
Thanks for the concern too, the hand is quite sore but i'm sure after a bottle or five of vodka tonight that pain will miraculously vanish. ;)

Did u inform the police that you were not only defending yourself but Madge as well?
Did u stand over him and scream - "now you know what Sophie Ellis Bexter was talking about"????
