Why complain?
I just threatened the little bastid who threw one at me with a visit to the village pond
How terribly good-natured of you.I just threatened the little bastid who threw one at me with a visit to the village pond
I do not expect to have to dodge missiles from a chavy cocky gobshyte who at the age of 15 should either know better or be in the park shooting up with his mates, hopefully on something cut with a female hormone.
I called the cops on a few kids, pelting cars with snowballs, mainly because they got mine, after having it keyed, and scuffed I wasnt in the mood for anymore. Tell you what you would be suprised how quick kids can run on snow, when you slam the brakes on and jam it in reverse and go after them... Throwing snowballs, no problems about, throwing snowballs at traffic, using snow from a gravel car park , and hearing stones hit my windows, not on...lucky I didnt catch them mind..
Only reason I rang cop shop(not 999) was there were stones within snowballs, could go throw someones windows, not only that, could cause a lovely accident where it was.

I heard a thump on my front door so went to have a look. As I reached the window I heard another thump. I looked out of a window to see two small boys making snow balls, they had obviously thrown a couple of snow balls at my door. Why? perhaps to provoke a reaction, get someone to come out and say "hey bugger off" so they can run off giggling.
I tried to ignore them, a couple of young girls walked past and they ran off throwing snow balls at them.
To be honest I was a bit dissapointed as I had just dusted off the AK47 and had loaded a full clip. Oh well you win some, you lose some. Didn't think about ringing 999 though, I mean why would you when you have a pit and a bag of lime.

I'm sorry, I don't understand why you didn't walk to the end of your drive/garden and get them in your sights. Little tw a ts need teaching a lesson.

Snowballs prompt 500 calls to 999
Incidents involving snowballs prompted members of the public to make more than 500 emergency 999 calls to police in Nottinghamshire.
A force spokeswoman said some of the snowball-related calls were genuine emergencies and incidents.
However she said some were of a trivial nature that did not warrant the use of an emergency call to police.
Officers have reminded members of the public to only dial 999 for genuine emergencies.
