I have some sympathy for him (in that I'd totally do the same thing if I'd thought of it first), but having careless housemates I've also experienced sadness at socks and undies going missing.

I'd say 10 years without parole minimum.

It's very sad & will be humiliating for him. It'll be some form of psychiatric disorder for sure & depression will be one part of that.

On a basic level, I still don't get it.

You may be right, WPT, though it's possible the kind of intrepid person who goes jumping over fences and making off with undies is completely humiliation-proof.

Trying to be serious for a second, is it at all possible that a court date could have been avoided? Couldn't those resources be allocated a little more usefully?

If she was wearing them it would be understandable, but from a washing line?

Mind you I don't find Miranda Kerr particularly attractive or sexy.

I've been hanging out women's knickers for years on the washing line & washing them too but if your'e gunna have a fetish......

I gotta say, she's pissing me off lately. I have her knickers, well I buy the ones she models for Victoria secret, but alas, in normal person size!

Let me reframe that. Like you I'm a parent of two daughters!

Once in a crowded bakery when I lived in Yackandandah & when my kids were very little & when I was lining up to pay I was searching my pockets & pulled out a pair of my kids knickers from one of my pockets!! :oops:

I was reading through an old thread (as I do sometimes when bored) and came across this interesting prediction:
Dr Alf Andrews wrote:

None of those will ever be Prime Minister.

Tony Abbott is The Man.

Now, that's DEPRESSING.
The post date? 20th November 2004.

Man was (is?) an oracle. And yes, it is. :lol:

yesterday, 10.15am, my eldest daughter, unfortunately woken from her slumber by the dog barking, walks down the stairs in pj shorts, and a windcheater with a weeks worth of breakfast down the front, no shoes, plunks down for brekky, "brr its cold mum can you put the heater on?"

me "put some damn clothes on."

10.15pm, I stick my head in her bedroom door to say good night, she still wearing the same windcheater, but with her boyfriend massive windcheater jacket over the top, im guessing her pj shorts with trackies over the top and ugg boots, AND the ceiling fan going flat chat. WTF! "its hot up here mum"

me "take some damn clothes off!"

im seriously deluded sending this child to uni, of that im sure!
