Kids & their ball

[DamoLLb]

I would choose a nice Climbing Evergreen for the wall. Very difficult to kick a ball against it as it will absorb the 'bounce' for want of a better description. 'Russian Vine' would do it in a period of a year or less!

Is it toxic? That might sort the problem out rather more quickly.

Not too sure. Perhaps "Poison-ivy" would be a better bet. Although the itching caused maybe masked by the fact that the kids could already have fleas!

Try and get some other kids to come and stab them?

Maybe try on Facebook or Twitter or something?

I get pissed off with the kid next door, most nights after school he'll go out and kick his football around the street, which invaribly leads to it hitting not ony my car but others.

Ive accosted him numerous times about this and he even had the cheek to say that on one particular occassion when he whacked the ball against a hire car that I had, that he didnt do it. When I told him Id just seen him do it, his was reply was "so"!

There is a bloody big field out the back of the house, go and play on that!

Similar happening here. Kids jumped on my car to get over fence to get ball when i was out. Came home last night, found fence broke and kids running off. Followed em, one crying his eyes out, he obviously fell when fence broke. They denied it, rang police, someone's on their way... Still not here 18 hours later.

Just to finish off the story. Got a letter yesterday saying the police had chased this up have closed the case.

Nobody came round to my house or spoke to me since I reported it.....

Does it say why? If not, call them and ask? (Assuming your blood pressure can take it).

Got the usual bit at top saying Crime Ref is x, then the Police aim to provide the best possible service blah blah...

Then at bottom

"All lines of enquiry have been investigated and there is nothing further to pursue at this time. The file will be closed pending further information or developments with the case. Should the investigation be re-opened at any time, you will be kept fully updated"

They neither called me or came to the house, so what exactly have they investigated? So I have to fork out for a new fence panel and nobody cares to look into it.


Also got another piece of delightful mail today, Council Tax bill. Increased 7% this year, 3.5% of which is for the Police.........

If you can be bothered (and really don't like a nice low blood pressure), you can always write to them and ask for details of their investigation given that no-one asked you for any information.

just take the ball and spike it with a needle in the house, give it back later, maybe kick it over the scrote's roof ?
