General Chat

I have just noticed that someone has been very kind and broke my ariel from my car what did they gain from doing it they cant use it as they just snaped it from the mounting sorry folks but i just had to let of steam

This is what I would call a hooligan. Maybe he didn't get enough pocket money from his mother (or father) or if he is older sexually frustrated! Maybe jealous! It's good that we've got a thread where you can let of steam. Albeit more a chat site these days. Somebody once stole a beautiful paeony(not sure how you spell this in English) from my front garden. They must have dug it out with a spade between 1.00 am and 7.00 am. I put a cross in my front garden with the words "Stolen a beautiful paeony. Look in your neighbour's garden, maybe you'll find it." I also put an ad in the local paper. I hoped this way to make the culprit feel ashamed. I had an idea who had done this- the neighbour opposite, who, suspiciously had a paeony in his garden the following year. But I had no proof that he had stole it.

For the same reason that the smash the windows out of telephone boxes (went past one this morning). But what the reason is, I know not.

Just heard from my neibour up the road that his car door lock was tampered with last night as well with a screwdriver i dont seem to remember all these things happening when i was a child

Margaret, that's because there used to be policemen around every corner.

Yes Trish and strict parents my husband went scumping apples when he was a kid and got his ears clipped by a policeman and a good hiding from his father when the policeman took him home

Margaret, there are still strict parents around, not enough, I grant you, but we are still about. M

In 1984 my daughter had not long been home after being out for the evening, when three yobbos set fire to her car. When questioned as to Why? the reply was, We wanted to see what it felt like" and "because it was there"
