WELLINGTON, New Zealand (AP) -- A burglar visited Graeme Glass' home in New Zealand twice in one day - first to steal some goods and later to return them, along with a heartfelt apology note. The thief struck while Glass was at work in the southern resort of Queenstown on Tuesday. The burglar smashed a window to gain entry and made off with a laptop computer, a camera, and Glass's wallet with an American Express credit card. The thief returned the goods later in the day, along with a new basketball and two pairs of gloves bought on the stolen credit card. Glass and his wife, Shirley, discovered the loot piled on their kitchen table with a neat, handwritten full-page note from the burglar saying he was sorry for "violating the safety and security of your home." The robber also promised to leave cash in Glass' mailbox to pay for the smashed window when he had enough money. "I have never written truer words when I say that I wish that I had never done this to you.

Yes, it's a nice gesture on behalf of the idiot that broke into the home in the first place. But, what has this to do with Australia?
4 :
strange story.....unless you might think the robber was drunk first and then turned sobber...or had a car accident or something with head injury after the robbery so that his personality changed.....I do not think this happens most of the time but human being is a very complex creature and there are always a lot of reasons for someone's action.....

Exactly what part of this reflects in any way on Australia? The article begins Wellington, NEW ZEALAND - might this be a clue ? Was the victim Australian? No? The thief ? The laptop, maybe? The wallet was kangaroo hide? When he returned the goods...he pinned the note to a vegemite sandwich? Honey - New Zealand is a DIFFERENT COUNTRY. LOL Bless ya - Inspirational story - misdirected reflection :=)
