And, look, there colour of the bricks – Crispina Kemp
A few bricks
Aha,
I’m just saying,
a few bricks wouldn’t be missed.
Hmm, what a wonderful idea.
Indeed.
Okay,
here is the deal.
I am dropping them down.
You’ll catch them in that wheelbarrow.
That’s it.

Hehe! Sounds like my husband when he was putting in a retaining wall! We had driven past a building that was being demolished and he was eyeing the bricks. I dissuaded him from petty theft!

We ended up buying the bricks from a resale building supply… for pennies. Still he doesn’t have a police record!!!

Tossing bricks down into a wheelbarrow? Well there’s always an element of risk 😆 so hopefully they have a hard hat!
