...without mindless vandolism in our own back yard. Griff now has a "go faster stripe" cut through the paintwork with, presumably, a key. Nice. Goody. We say it every year, but this country really is ging down the bloody pan.

....Marlon.....really sorry to hear it mate.

I think you're right...we can hardly breathe these days without upsetting someone.

I logged on to Woody's Lounge the other day cos I had a computer problem. Logged is as Username Yellow Peril, got my question answered, but when I went back to say thanks I couldn't get logged in.

Appears on enquiry they have changed my user name because other users found it offensive as they were a non political, non religious and non racist forum....

The fact that I was offended didn't seem to matter....I told them where they could poke their forum!

It's tough cos even if you found the scum that did it Marlon you would be in the wrong the moment you attempted to cream them.

My sympathies Marlon, unbelievable. It takes the pleasure away from owning a nice car a little. You are always worried about leaving it somewhere. As I am.

Grouch.

What a complete pi55er that is, scrotes/morons/twats need herding up and some severe punishment handed out.

Matt had his P&J almost wreaked with a smashed windscreen, bonnet stoved in and the roof jumped on numerous times. Eventually the nobber went to court
fined £100 or so ordered to pay Matt £650. Will Matt see his money, like Fk he will.

I dread leaving 'Grimbo' anywhere on his own now.

Very bad news mate. This sort of stuff makes me very angry.
Happened to me at the start of the year and now I am a bit paranoid about where I leave the car.

Use it as an excuse for an upgrade or something.

Some of the "residents" in my block of flats can't be bothered to walk all the way to the bin store (about 15 metres) so they just leave their rubbish in the lift. Some people are just irritating, and yet it's illegal to beat the out of them. Seems unfair.

What's even more irritating is when there's no logic behind their actions, such as keying a car. I mean why bother?

Maybe they could turn all the speed cameras into CCTV cameras?

They wouldn't do that if they lived by me, some mother would be rummaging through for thier bank details.

Open up the bags, get the details off one of their letters, and start posting the contents back to them.

Just to restore a tiny bit of faith in the criminal justice system, about ten years ago a bloke reversed into me while I was sitting at some lights with a couple of mates outside the pub he was coming out of. He refused to give his details so we took his number and straight round to plod. To cut a long story short, they found him, hauled him up in front of the magistrates, who accepted my garages estimate of £900 damages and ordered him to pay (predictably he had no insurance). When he said he had no money, they asked him what he reckoned he could afford, so he said about £9 a week, to which the magistrate said ok. Took almost two years but I got the lot...he missed payments twice in that time which led to him being hauled before the beak each time, slap on wrists, keep on paying unless you want worse. So you do get your money sometimes.
