Just had a knock from a neighbour telling me that my motorhome has a smashed side window! I go out to look and find that something has been ‘shot’ from the road, through the drivers window and out of the passenger door glass! I find a glass marble on the path which is likely to be the offending article.
We call the police, not fecking interested of course, to tell them and now I’m sitting here waiting for a glass repair bloke to come and tidy it up and someone else to come back in a couple of days to carry out a repair.
This just a couple of weeks from confronting a ‘rounders bat wielding druggie’ in my garden having smashed the fence down, a few week after having the Alfa attacked on the drive with rock the size of a football and a couple of months from having the another family members car sprayed on the drive and the rear screen smashed with a rock in two separate incidents.
The only thing giving me some comfort is that it doesn’t seem to be personal as others were affected by most of the incidents……………… some comfort that is.
What can you do? You can’t even get hold of the little buggers and give them a good hiding because things like this were a bloody ‘drive by’!!!!!!
The worry in my mind is that it is only a matter of time before the house becomes a target or someone gets hurt (deliberately or accidentally)
Well, here it comes………I’ve got to that age…………..what is the world coming to?
Where did all this happen? Inner city, 'sink estate' in Manchester/London/Birmingham?.........................No, a quiet village just outside Oxford!

we live in a 'desired address' and we get this regular mainly between 1 and 5am Sunday nights-- whole road gets mirrors snapped off, bodywork keyed, even nitromorse worse since 24hr drinking on 1st name terms with glass company having spent £600 on various windows recently

to hear this david. Scum bags like these deserve to be locked up away from society. And when they are locked up they shouldnt be given playstations and fancy items. They should be separated and made to do hard labor.

It doesn't seem to matter where you live these days there is always the scum who wreck it for everyone else, We live on a supposedly quite, gated residential urbanization of 18 town houses and there is one neighbor who thinks it is a holiday camp, music blares out day and night, lets her kids run wild ("I don't believe in discipline") resulting in the trellis around the pool being smashed, plants damaged and walls maked by footballs and encourages holiday makers in the rent a house next to her to go mad in the pool with her 'family' until the early hours, (illegal after midnight in Spain). What do you do? If you have 'a word' with the kids you are a "child abuser", if you have a word with her it's "harasmant" and if you call the police because it's bedlam out side at 2 in the morning you are a "spoil sport wrecking hollidays and a boring old fart", She doesn't give a toss if the fuzz are called, so at least three houses are up for sale, including ours. Ooooo I get sooo angry.

A system should be set up where they only get ration stamps telling them what they will eat, so they cant choose what they get! Maybe that will tenderise the arrogance within them and humble them up...

I think the UK is way too soft and open to abuse on benefits, Here in Spain there is NO benefit system, basic unemployment benefit depends on what you earned in the past three years, (typically about 850€ a month, that is about £100 a week), no past work = no dole. no housing, child or sickness benefit at all and if you are, or were, self employed (autonomo) like me, you get bugger all if you are out of work, despite having paid in 4 times the UK level of self employed stamp. 16, single mother, no job, no house/flat? TOUGH! it's family support or nothing. Would you really like it that way in the UK? Remember, the army is a highly trained, professional body, there just isn't the scope in todays forces for yob bashing, I was informed by JonL that you can't even shout at the little dears these days without getting a red card, and I mean it, a bloody red card for real! an NCO has to walk away and get another one to deal with the little bugger, , not allowed to swear at them or abuse, degrade or be-little them either, what a load of B*****S! When I was in the big green marching machine aged 17 I had to cope with all the above, and some, as well as being bullied and did it do me any harm? After 45 years they are still trying to find out

I live in a good area with generally no trouble. In the house and found someone tampering with the RV outside. A little talk with a golf club and a kind request never to come neer my house again solved the problem. He would have been sore in the morning.
So a lesson to be learned, voilence is the answer and its the only way they know as when they have been "dragged up" they have been diciplined with violence so they learn well from it.
Worth a try then again I have a black belt in kickboxing so its easier for me.
Dont bother with police they arnt interested in the slightest.
Hope it ends for you mate as it is seriously unfair for you to foot the bill for people being idiots

These days the scum bags hang around in large groups. Maybe its good to take a few others with you if ever have to confront them. And maybe a spanner or three...

Thanks for all the words of support.
It seems that we were one of 10 incidents that night from cars to house windows. They basically drove from one area to another and created havoc on the way.
We hit the papers too and the Police have some leads that they hope will lead to an arrest.
I just hope it calms down as I really can't face moving.
Look forward to meeting up soon and seeing the progress made on the club cars.
David
