When we lived in High park there was this variety tuck shop in one of the apts.
Recently in the news people were paying the store owner to watch this seagull steal bags of chips......

One day walking to the store this squirrel with a cadbury's friut and nut bar came running past two Canada Geese..they turned to see what he had in their mouth...Sandy i crakced up....So in the store we asked and the Korean lady told us that he is stealing her bars....she wasn't happy...

One day i go in , the door in summer is always open, and she is shoooing the squirrel out....I go "Is that him?" she says yeah and points out she now has moved the box up further but he climbs the rack.....
"I say look let him have it , I'll pay , i'll buy it for him"

He came in and sure enough stole a fruit and nut bar after climbing up to get it...i paid her LOL!!!!!!

Doc, you shoulda started a tab for the l'il gaffer. :lol:
LOL Zan....for months you could see wrappers all shredded lying under this tree in the area.....It was a well kept clean Apartment project so the lil gaffer as you call him...LOL!!!!did quite well for himself.

I think the look on the Korean lady's face when i told her i wanted to buy him a candy bar was priceless.....After he stole it, i'm like a good customer of hers, she is like still you really want to pay.....

she used to have this young relative guy work part time for her...His english was not the best....i used to ask him if they had any hamster milk.
He knew what hamsters were and he was totally confused....

"Please ask you boss to bring back the Hamster Milk"
"You like?"
"Yeah it's the best you ever try it? Very healthy for you"

when he finnaly caught on he took me aside and said that the hamster milk was a big hit with his family.....
