Unknown to few, and only very few as the unique bright neon lights are
the landmark reference, I live just near an Adult World...yes, its
been there for longer than the 7 years I've resided in Craighall, and
certainly attracts the most affluent individuals for a private
screening from the neighbouring upmarket areas such as Hurlingham,
Craighall, Hyde Park, Dunkeld and others.
It so came last night that I heard a violently loud bang, a thud and
few other unusual noises. Seeing as it was way too late after only
having gotten to bed at 1:30 coding away at the awesome ExtJs
framework and researching the .Net implementation under Coolite, I was
in too tired a state to even get up and bother with the racket.
Turns out that a friendly police man arrived thos morning to take
pictures of the breakin!?! He had the right address but we couldn't
confirm such incident, until he took his camera to the Adult World to
snap a few pics from the overly large but-now-denolished safe that had
been forced off its base onto the floor. What is even more amazing is
that they used powertools and angle grinders to force the steel block
open; and then took their time around 3am to make off on their way
with R32,000.
Now really, while the Adult World might attract its fair share of Jag,
Merc, expensive Land Rovers among a few dinky neglected cars of
frequent visitors, I'.m quite peturbed by the proximity of this
violence and malicious destruction!
Sigh, just another day in Joburg ai!
