Suspicious activity?
A couple living in Mt Eliza liked to walk along the beach every day.
One day last summer they noticed a young woman who was at the beach nearly every day.
She wan't unusual, nor was the shoulder bag that she carried, except for one thing; she would approach people sitting on the beach, glance around and then speak to them.
Generally people seemed to respond negatively and she would wander off.
However, occasionally someone would nod and there would be quick exchange of money and something small that she carried in her bag.
The couple assumed that she was selling drugs and debated calling the police. But since they didn't know for sure they decided to continue watching her.
After a couple of weeks the wife said, "Have you noticed that the only people who buy from her usually have a radio or other electronic device?"
The husband said that he hadn't noticed that this was the case.
"I know", said the wife, "tomorrow I want you to bring our large portable CD player down here and go and lie on the beach."
The plan went off without a hitch and sure enough, the woman went up to the husband and seemed to whisper to him.
After the girl finished speaking to the husband he stood up and walked to the park at the top of the beach where his wife was eagerly waiting.
"Well, is she selling drugs?" the wife demanded.
"No, she's not", he replied enjoying this more than he should have.
"Well, what is it then? What does she do?"
The husband grinned and said, "She's a battery salesperson."
"Batteries,?" cried the wife.
"Yes", he replied
"She sells C cells by the seashore!"
