woman was before the magistrate on a charge of shop lifting. She admitted to stealing a small tin of peaches, pleading that it was a small tin and only contained six peaches. The magistrate told the woman shoplifting was a serious problem in the community and had to be treated as such. He then sentenced her six days in prison, telling her it was a day for each peach she had stolen. Just before she was taken away her husband stood up at the back of the court and declared, Your honour, she also pinched a large tin of peas. Regards Jack
