The Baccoo Speaks

Mar 25, 2012 Features / Columnists, The Baccoo Speaks

 

When I spoke of the fires many people simply considered the warning just the ramblings of a baccoo. Suffice it to say that I am not ordinary. There were four this past week and more are to come. All of them would be the work of some devilish people and a few by a careless few.
In most of the cases disaster would be averted because neighbours would respond with some alacrity and because there would be an adequate supply of water nearby.

The roads are still not safe. However, more people are exercising caution except at the weekend when people become over-exuberant after a session with the contents of a bottle.
One particular accident would be caused by a driver who simply lost his motor skills and this has nothing to do with the car. Basically he would not be in control of his body. He is going to crash into a fixture with near fatal consequences.
**
There is going to be a series of attacks by young criminals who are simply after money to satisfy a craving and a chance to attend a major social event that is being talked about.
In a few cases, the perpetrators are going to escape with a sum of money that would appear insignificant to the wider society but the police would be after them in a hurry.
One group would be caught at the scene and another would be attacked by people in the vicinity. Interesting times are ahead.
