Christmas
Christmas is just around the corner the
season of good will - not by all, unfortunately some see it as an opportunity
to get free televisions, lap tops, iphones, games consoles and jewelry amongst
other things. Not by going to Bromley’s Intu or Bluewater shopping centre, no
need to do that there’s plenty of stock in cars and houses on the ward at this
time of year and they all come with free wrapping!!
Please be vigilant don’t leave Presents on
display for all to see either in your car or around Christmas tree’s. If you
leave your cars unattended take your goods out or if you can’t, lock them in
the boot of your car until you get home.
