Day 4 - Recovery

Sunday was spent how all Sundays should be spent, with a sleep in followed by brunch followed by lazing around all day followed by watching a trashy Sunday night movie while eating takeaways for dinner.
We did find out though that in the wee hours of the morning when my cousin Marlee and her friend Simone had got a cab home from the city he'd turned on them demanding they give him their phone or camera as "security" as he was certain they weren't going to pay their fare. When they not so politely declined his demands he did a "u bolt" on the highway in order to take them back to the city. Somewhere round this point the girls decided he was crazy so called the cops or "Po po" as they call them, and then when they were stopped at some lights decided to make a jump for it. The cabbie didn't like this much so got out and grabbed Simone and threw her camera and somehow ended up with Marlee's ID. Needless to say the girls were pretty shaken by the whole event. I'm secretly glad I'd lost them and didn't share the whole encounter with them! Not a good way to end a night on the town.
