Lost iPad found in Ainslie

mistertim 6 January 2012 6 January 2012 5

If your family is missing an iPad (perhaps it fell from the roof of your car) it could be the one my wife found today sitting in the middle of a roundabout on Majura Ave (between Dickson and Ainslie).

If that sounds like your situation, contact the AFP in Civic to retrieve it – she handed it in at the main police station there.

How did your wife get to be stranded in the middle of the roundabout?

She was driving past and thought ‘that looks like an iPad’, so stopped and retrieved it – and lo and behold it was. Amazing that it survived intact.

Personally I blame the swans. Always on the web.
