1. The appellant entered a plea of guilty to two charges of theft on 23 December 2002 and was convicted on his own plea by the magistrate. He was sentenced to eight months' imprisonment in respect of each charge with six months of the second charge ordered to run concurrently with the sentence on the first charge, making a total of 10 months' imprisonment. He now appeals against both sentences on the basis that the sentences are too severe.
