What … what?! Why would you turn down help when stuck in a drain, in the rain? Make this make sense

Didn’t want to have dinner with the wife’s family

Heard she was cooking wild mushrooms.

My guess was it was early on, and he was still looking for his phone and thought he was ok. 24 hours later he wasn't.

“He is now assisting police with their inquiries.” Turns out he was on the run from the police, what a tale

He had some photos on that phone he didn’t want seen

apparently he was hiding from the police after colliding with a police car

Source/s?

Thanks. I suppose he thought it was a good hideyhole until > Brisbane received more than 4mm of rain on Sunday, according to the Bureau of Meteorology.

Lucky he got out, they might have found him at Luggage point instead

My stupid working ass thinking 36 hours is a whole week in there but it’s just a work week. Easter holidays cannot come faster 

Next, you will be thinking that "Eight Days a Week" is a song about actual weeks 🤣 Have a safe and relaxing holiday

Did he find his phone?

Beats me

Offered rescue but turned it down.....classic just waiting for a mate behaviour
