The break in the fence was not, according to the security guard, the fault of the petite lady in the BMW four wheel. So off she went ignoring the note that had been left on the car. Near tragedy was to confront her a week later when the big movie man spotted her or rather the vehicle (he had noted the license number) and instructed the security guards to close the gate. The cost of her escape? J$3000.00. The receptionist was paid and thankfully she escaped with her life.
Soon to be delivered.
