Honey, I'm home

Continuing our run of 'Only In Estonia' stories comes this shocking news from the Sakala gazette in Viljandi County:

A break-in was reported on a farm in Sudiste village this week in which around a ton of honey was stolen from the beekeeper's shed.

The crime is thought to have been committed some time between Tuesday and Thursday.

The honey thief also stole a saw. The damage to the owner comes to a total of 70,000 kroons.

I suppose you have to ask: what does the sticky-fingered pilferer plan to do with a ton of honey? Make a beeline for the nearest bear sanctuary? And how will the police crack the case? Viljandi CID must be a hive of activity at the moment... etc...

Thief must have been a sweet person. By the way I just ran into a website about Estonia the other day - it is a Documentary about Estonia's Singing Revolution:

That's twice you've mentioned it. It clearly made an impression on you.
