We pulled up at the guard shack at the Moon Bay gated community, where a well-armed security officer comes up to the car. I wind the window down and asked what was in Moon Bay and pointed my finger around, indicating that we’d like to take a look around. The guard simply says “yes yes”, drops the chain blocking our way and lets us through.
You know you’re in an exclusive neighbourhood when all blocks are at least a ½ acre and are filled to the easements with various style of large abodes, there are a dozen yardies tending to the streets, footpaths and gardens and where the For Sale signs have Sotherby’s written on them.
I spotted a yardie watering a garden in a cul-de-sac and with the rental car being all covered in a shit tonne of dust, I pulled up, left the vehicle running with Lila in it and asked the fella if I could borrow his hose. I said I need to rinse the wife’s car off as she’ll kill me if I take it back to her all dirty. The fella looks at Lila, gives me a knowing look, hands me the hose and then starts pointing out spots that needed extra attention. I get back in the car and let Lila know what happened, which was a good laugh.
