Crims hate air horns COUCH to win from TV show

It is becoming a truly sad world we are dwelling in.

We have global warming which is threatening to not only kill the majority of life forms on this precious planet, but to also flood out those last remaining living creatures. Then we are creating dangerous viruses that kill millions, and sends countries into severe depression and years of recessions leading to bankruptcy. Reasons? Who knows, maybe world domination or just total stupidity.

At the moment, we are suffering another problem Australia wide and that is youth crime, being car thefts, home invasions, break and enters, group shop lifting, stabbings, school bullying and fighting and all the above and much more seems to be for the pleasure of seeing themselves on social media.

These twits are even having competitions on who can sneak into bedrooms and steal your keys right from under your pillow, who can steal the most expensive car, who can drive the fastest, who can have the most cop cars chasing them, even chasing cops and the list goes on and on. With it, seems to come very few consequences for the perpetrators. I have people continually asking me for the best alarm systems, door locks, cameras etc.

And while changing to, and/ or adding dead locks to all entry points, placing 42 x 19mm pine timber behind sliding windowss,will slow these mongrels down what we really need is something that will scare them off to the point that they will not return to your place or more importantly your neighbourhood.

After extensive studying these kids on the many various web sites, it would seem that the only thing they are more afraid of, apart from someone shooting at them, is loud noise.

Yes, let me set up a scenario here. You are lying in bed and there are noises in your yard that should not be there, and motion lights turn on, what happens next is you reach over and grab the air horn pressing it down to let the loudest noise you will ever hear in your place, which also wakes up or alerts the neighbours who set off their horns and alarms with dogs alsdo going nuts.

What happens next has been proven time and time again is that these grubs take off real fast as they cannot stand loud noise alerting everyone to their presence.

Now if we make a habit of working with our neighbours to scare them off with these party air horns which you can buy from Silly Solley’s for $4 then we can really make a difference to the crime rate that our governments and courts cannot seem to do.

Recently, while nearing the completion of my day at the Big Green Shed on a Sunday, feeling the worms starting to bite I suddenly had hunger for pizza (and not with pineapple) so out comes the phone and on to the Dominos App to pick and place my order for 5.30pm pick-up at White Rock. Simple, yes? What could go wrong?

Well, I soon found that out when paying the bill.

Right beside me on the counter is a very little card announcing that I am being charged 10 per cent Sunday surcharge.

I am quite accepting of public holiday surcharge but this? Not a bloody chance ever again. Fish and chips next time. Smiling is living, Wayne.

| Nick Dalton COUCH (Cairns Organisation United for Cancer Health) is the official charity partner for the Adventure All Stars TV charity series.

COUCH events and partnerships officer Bec Dent said the hunt was on for “12 amazing humans to be part of the project”.

“Australia’s only sociallyconscious TV travel series Adventure All Stars is looking for cast members to feature in season four and COUCH has partnered with the producers to assist in the search,” she said.

“This is an opportunity for people within our community to do something totally life-changing and support a great cause at the same time.

“Adventure All Stars is the award-winning Aussie TV travel show with a difference. Every episode is filmed in spectacular locations, with cast members spending a week uncovering the best and most exciting experiences on the planet.

“And here’s the awesome part: pre-filming, participants raise funds and exposure for COUCH and they are then rewarded with a one-week trip- of-a-lifetime to a breathtaking secret location with the Adventure All Stars film crew.

“An Australia-wide search is now underway for people aged between 18 and 80 to star in a life-changing seven-day adventure to a secret destination for a week of fun and filming, to uncover the best and most exciting experiences on the planet.”

Adventure All Stars executive producer Troy Gray said the series was creating television history by raising millions of dollars to support a record number of Australian charities.

“Unlike other TV shows, none of our cast receive an appearance fee and all net proceeds are gifted to charity. Also, let’s not forget that Adventure

All Stars is a ground-breaking travel show promoting incredible destinations to a global audience – filmed and presented as socially positive, harmonious, and visually spectacular television content,” he said.

“The second season of Adventure All Stars generated close to $1.2 million for Australian charities, making the show one of the biggest contributors to philanthropy of any TV series in the world.” Mr Gray said all 49 episodes had raised $10m.

Season three of the series will premiere on Friday, July 21 at 9pm on 7Plus.
