Black Hanky boy

Our street name in Cham is Kleinweid, means 'little meadow' in German and despite living in an eight storey building we are literally next to farm houses. At one of these houses is a strawberry shop.  Mingyu and I decide to drop in and buy some strawberries for mum one day and found they had sold out. The shop lady said we could pick our own and gave us a punnet and pointed us in the direction of the rows of planted strawberries. While picking the berried Mingyu suggested we come back there at night as 'black hanky boys' to take the berries in black balaclavas. 
The term has caught on and we refer to any undesirables as black hanky boys.
