The Great Escape

Yesterday's news from Canberra included a story about two inmates who escaped from the Belconnen remand centre and made their way onto the roof. They weren't exactly criminal masterminds, and it was far from being the great escape, but it did provide everyone with an alternative newstory to the economic woes of the World (or should that be GFC).

They made their way onto the roof in the early hours of the morning, removed their shirts and proceeded to grow ever more sunburnt as the day heated up. Just before midday with the temperatures approaching 38 degrees they agreed to come down on the proviso that they were given ice cream and McDonalds.
