| gen. | примерно месяц тому назад | about a month ago (About a month ago, I noticed some garbage was dumped at the side of the road on Ridgway Avenue a little north of East Third Street. I drive by there almost every day. It irritated me every time I dove by, so last Sunday I took a bag and some gloves and stopped on my way home to clean it up. Among the garbage were some papers associated with your son Derek, including a Christmas card from you with the enclosed cheque for $10,000. I am assuming your son is not the litterer, so I decided to return the cheque to you. I thought you and maybe Derek might be interested in finding out what happened to it. (Twitter) ART Vancouver) |
