What a Steal !

A gold bathtub worth 120 million yen ($988,100) which was stolen from

a hotel near Tokio.

Japanese police are scratching their heads over how the bathtub weighing

some 80 kg was stolen from the 10th floor

of the hotel.
How is something like this possible? Swiping a towel or an
ashtray because the guest wants a holiday souvenir is one thing, but
removing a wall fitted TV - unnoticed by any of the hotel staff, let alone
passing the reception without anyone batting an eyelid because you're
huffing and puffing from the weight of the television set, is still a puzzle to me.
Now all I can think of is taking a bath in a golden bathtub worth 1 million
dollars, filled with Lime blossom lotion ! !

I too, have wondered how you get such an item out of the room at all! It's not like you can stick it in your pocket or hide it in your purse. Well, Sometimes it feels like I do carry just about everything but the kitchen sink in my purse! But I have never tried a bathtub....and a gold one at that!!!

I guess we will never know how the thief managed to get the bathtub out of the hotel without anyone noticing.
But it sure make you wonder.
A gold tub filled with nice warm water and lime blossom bubble bath, a glass of wine and softly glowing candles, and soft music, yes that is something I would enjoy.

But I am rather confused about where did the TV come in?

There were two thieves. They turned it upside down and one got inside it, the other pretended it was his pet Armadillo and walked it out the front door
