I'm very well, Jonathan.
Thank you very much.
We have.
We've had several incidents.
As Martina said, a lot of it works OK.
But then we have people that come along, pull our plastic bags out of the bins, use a knife or scissors to slice open the bags to get at the plastic bottles.
And we had an incident recently where I went out with a forecourt and I was on the forecourt.
The guy pulled the bag out, sliced it open.
I went over and asked him to leave.
And then he's fronting up to me face to face and then I realise he's got scissors in his hand.
No, I don't think he had any intention to do anything with it, but still I was somewhat scared, I suppose.
just left thrown all over the forecourt.
And this is happening four or five times a day.
So we have to have regular staff out there.
We change the bins, we put in stronger ones, and then they brought tools with them to pry open the bins.
So at this stage, we're not quite sure what to do.
Can I ask another question?
No, he did head elsewhere, to be honest.
He had a big plastic bag over his back and eventually he left the place.
But in another shop inside in town, in fairness, the council came up with a good solution for us.
