As a Weekend Sun deliverer, I'm asking the person or persons who stole my all-terrain pram and suitcase from the corner of 8th Avenue and Edgecumbe Road: Why you couldn't have left my remaining copies?

Thanks to you, households at the top end of 7th Ave missed out on their paper.

Losing a job to Covid-19 and unable to find another (age discrimination and being considered ‘unskilled'), I took a delivery run.

The Avenues run (both sides of Cameron Road) is a big one and I don't have a car. My daughter bought the pram on Trade Me as a means of carrying my papers.

There's no suitable replacement in the op shops and comparable models on Trade Me are too expensive. I'm just trying to be self-reliant instead of asking for handouts and my daughter was trying to help her mum.

So I'm asking the person who ended up with my items to do the right thing. Contact this newspaper's office and they will reunite us. My householders are entitled to their paper and your ‘freebie' is needed to make that happen. It also means a lot to me.
