Garry is an Aussie writer.
Ned Kelly, the famous Bushranger who terrorized (or
liberated... depending on your point of view...) bushland
Victoria in the 1870-80s is reported to have done exactly
this.
He had his gang bail up the families of bank managers while
Ned would take the manager to open the bank vault. By all
reports, the families usually quickly overcame their fear of
the gang, often reporting that they had quite a nice time
with Ned's brother and closest friends... often serving them
tea or participating in sing-alongs.
SO, I'm guessing maybe Garry got the idea from there? (Garry
lives in bushland Victoria, BTW)
Just my 2cents.
