Lockington's Everyday Fiji ... Life Goes On

                                     Kind Act

A request to parents:  Do not send your little children to the shops with $50 and or $100 notes. And please don’t send them to buy eggs. They will only drop them and make your head sore and you'll end up giving them a hiding. And as for the big notes, if they drop the change that's a huge amount of money lost.

I have seen many little children bringing huge denominations to the shops and this morning I saw a child who was sent to buy eggs. As soon as he went onto the road, he dropped the bag and the eggs broke. Lucky the shopkeeper was kind enough to call the child back and replace the eggs.

 Thank you to Motu’s store for this kind act. And to the parents: Get off your lazy backsides and go to the shops yourself, or send older children.
