Arent the public lovely !
My wife's aunt lives in a Welsh seaside town right on the seaside, near the beach.
She has to contend with,
People leaving a days worth or their litter on the beach, ask them to take it with them, get told to f*ck off.
Glass bottles being smashed on the rocks that she sweeps up almost daily with a dustpan and brush. 20 or so Kronenburg bottles the other day, bear in mind that families with kids use it during the day.
Her fence and gates being used as firewood by those who like a nice barbecue on the beach, 2 grand's worth this year so far. They also use the warning signs as firewood that she has to provide and has to pay public liability insurance to let the ungrateful public across part of her land.
Beer bottles/pint pots launched onto her driveway and garden
People p1ssing and sh1tting on her steps
Getting obscene gestures when looking out of the window.
Fireworks at 2am from the beach, aimed at the house.
Having to call the Ambulance for teenagers so drunk and drugged they are basically going to die without medical intervention.
Its just sad really, I would be out with a baseball bat within a week, even though the Police do a reasonable job they cant be there all day and night.

Sadly that is basically what the UK is coming to. The majority of its inhabitants are scum, simple as that. May sound harsh, but it's true.
I don't suppose the police have been at all interested in having a nosey, seeing as it hapens so regularly they may be able to catch a few at it which could deter others if their prosecution was plastered across the local press.
Sadly thoiugh I guess they are probably to busy with the speed guns

LOL Of course this is a car forum so that sort of stuff doesn't matter, and the visible signs of declining standards in schools has absolutely nothing to do with the problems we're now seeing.

buy this stuff:
Anti Climb Spray - Reduced to £6.99 (half normal price) each when you buy 2. Effectively 2 for 1. Emulsions, Paint, Varnish and Preparations DEEMARK
She'll have to put up with a black garden fence, but at least it'll stay put.

That's what happens when you don't have a large scale war on the European continent per generation... Too much cannon fodder breeding.

27 Years ago
When I was a lad
We used to have beach parties most nights.
We did used to get horrendously pissed sometimes.
Play loundish music - but we were not too near houses
Go naked skinny dipping
Light fair sizish fires
The odd gate was nicked for wood every now and then
The odd fence was pissed against
We were not perfect and a bit yobish at times
But it was all fairly inocent stuff - when you compare it to what is happening JACKOs family member.
Kind of illustrates the change in society over the past few decades!

On a tangent, I find it amazing that David Cameron is opposed to building more grammar schools. To me, it would be the obvious start to reversing the current social decline of standards, not just educational.
My 8 year old son is doing well at school, but he's been held back by kids in the same class who can't even speak correctly, never mind read and write. It would be so good, if at 11, he could go to a school where kids are not obsessed with swearing, ********, drinking and drugs. As it is, I'll probably have to pay for that privilege.

This sort of shameful behaviour is also just as bad down here in the West Country.
The locals hate the thought of all the unpleasantness and boorish behaviour but unfortunately have to put up with it to a certain extent since the economy here relies on tourism.
They walk around all over the place as if they own it, all over the roads which are not pedestrianised, throw their rubbish all over the place, feed the seagulls in spite of being asked not to thus encouraging a public and dangerous menace, throw up all over the streets, vandalise the attractive gardens and fountains etc causing irrepairable damage, treat locals as though they are something the dog brought in, push everyone out of their way-including the disabled,and spend the day shouting at each other, and that is just a small example of their behaviour!
I very much regret the seriously bad manners and lack of thought for anyone else but themselves which is demonstrated these days. F1 fan has got it right!

There is a boy in his class, who is 8 in August. He makes comments about the size of ladies breasts. Says more for his parents than him, but considering the individual in question and other things that he does, IMO his life is already wasted
#18
my five year old boy comments on womens breasts, smriks and smiles and points at them an then shoves things up his jumper and copies them,
i know you are all going to say how terrible it is, but god he is funny

It's happening across the board though. Earlier today I was in town and waiting to cross a road, at the side of me were two old ladies waiting patiently to cross also. Car after car passed and not one had the decency to stop and let these two old dears pass. In frustration I finally said 'you'd expect someone to have the courtesy to stop'. The two ladies gave me a rueful look and one of them said 'we're just in the way now'. What a sad state of affairs, it irked me no end I tell you.

I know you hate me banging on about this, but if the internet had been around thirty years ago, i'd like to think nobody would have set up a user id on a public bbs "kingofturds". And i'm being totally serious. Stones and glass houses. The rot has to start somewhere, however insignificant you might think it is.

And surely I'd like to think that 30 years ago people would like to brag about their sexual fetishes on a public forum I could be named lord harding the 3rd and still act like a complete knobwipe.
So are you suggesting that by calling myself "kingofturds" on some internet forum, I am fair game to have my sons travelbag stolen by some theiving low life

Absolutely no idea what the connection is there, sounds like it's an attempt to find anything to throw back at me. Whatever. What i'm saying is that this sort of dumbing down, whether it's "just" a user id, is what makes things like that increasingly accepted. There's no dignity any more. You just don't think it matters. I'm telling you it does.
