I received this message from Brigitte today. Thank you Brigitte. As it isn’t April first, the allegations within are not part of some fools’ day hoax and so are either either true and very bizarre, or false and very bizarre, but I’ll think that you’ll agree that either way the allegations are very bizarre. Is the practice of handing out free key holders a promotional stunt, a spontaneous act of kindness, or … a sinister attempt to track your every move thereafter? If you have ever received a free key ring at a gas station you may be interested in reading on, but be advised this might be a folk rumour or a paranoid delusion, or it may just be a public spirited individual giving us all fair warning.

Subject: FW: KEY HOLDERS – WARNING !!!Good day
Please do not accept FREE KEY HOLDERS at service stations, it has a tracker device in it by which you can be followed. Please send to as may people as possible.

I would suggest the obvious solution to this latest ploy is to not to accept free key holders in Namibian service stations! You could spray the guy in the face with a pepper solution perhaps? And alert the service station staff. They are usually very protective and loyal to their customers. And if you are feeling vigorous you could make him eat his key holders or stuff them up his rear end and track HIS movements!
Don’t get me wrong, I’m not advocating senseless violence in this blog.
I’m saying DON’T fight crime. Fight the criminals! And smash their heads in! My Blog will be looking at GETTING MUGGED tomorrow. Three muggers had a go at me last Thursday. It didn’t work out for them. Two had a go at Billy on Saturday. That one really didn’t work out for them. My guys just ran like s***e. Billy’s guys? They’re either in hospital or … well, you’ll get full details tomorrow!
Cheers!
Hugh.
