An 81-year-old "paper boy" who had his bicycle stolen while on his round is back in the saddle.
Norman Bennett, of Cardiff, had stopped off for a cup of tea at a friend's house in Ely when his bike was pinched.
But that has not stopped Mr Bennett from carrying out his morning round six days a week because he has now borrowed a bike from a neighbour.
Mr Bennett delivers newspapers to around 10 people in Ely who are too frail to do it themselves.
"I was in a person's house and left my bike on the driveway and the lady there offered me a cup of tea," he said.
"I was there about a quarter of an hour or 20 minutes and when I came out, I said to her 'my bike has gone'."
But that did not stop Mr Bennett, a former Welsh Guard who started delivering papers in 2006 after his wife died, from finishing his round.
"The lady in the house offered to take me round in the car," he said.
"I said there's no reason really but she said she felt guilty because she asked me in for a cup of tea and it wouldn't have been taken otherwise!"
'Quite distinctive'
Mr Bennett now has two bicycles at his disposal after a neighbour loaned him one and another neighbour returned one of his own old bikes.
But he is still desperate to get his other bike back.
Pc Richie Edmunds, from the Ely neighbourhood policing team, said: "The gentleman delivers newspapers for a local newsagent and while doing his rounds on Saturday his bike was taken from the driveway of a house in Cowbridge Road West.
"We are conducting enquiries locally and checking CCTV in the area. However, we are also appealing to the local community for any information."
Pc Edmunds said the Peugeot bicycle was "quite distinctive" because of its light turquoise colour. It also had a worn leather saddle and a yellow South Wales Echo bag attached to the back of it.
