Did he (39 y.o. male) happen to be hiding in the toilet?

(sorry, couldn’t help it…)

No, it was the Ainslie S***er – he must have been in the front yard!

Fun and hijinks in McKellar. What great neighbours! Hopefully it was the idiot who parks with gay abandon. Apparently driving with a gun wound is ill-advised. Get well soon!
