It was reported in the international press last week that a lady of Eastern origin had her handbag — containing more than two million dollars worth of jewellery — stolen while she was dining at Harrods.
We are reasonably certain that the report referred to Harrods of Knightsbridge in London and not Harrods of Rangataua (pictured). In fact the last time a lady of Eastern origin carried
that amount of money in her handbag locally was proba-
bly at the Rangataua Ball two years ago!
