Not that I expect them to read on this bbs but...

<rant_on>

Driving home tonight in the deapths of bedforshire past my villages local cricket ground and some evil cn*ts decide I'd be a great target for some eggs and flour bombs.

Well thanks very much...

I've only had the car 6 days (from brand spanking new!) and now I have an egg impact mark with all the scratches from the shell in the front corner of the near side wing and bug eye..

What do these kids (sorry evil little scroates) get off on ?

I worked my bollocks off to buy my first car at 1800 quid when I was 18 and it hasnt got any easier. What right have they got to do this ?

Or is it just the way society is now going - tollerate it, slap their wrists (metaphorically of course - we wouldnt want to instill any discipline now would we) and say dont do it again.

</rant_on>

Well no not really - I shall be fuming for days...

I truely hope no one else suffers tonight as I have.

Edited as I was so angry I fogot to balance my tags !

And they are talking of making smaking your own child ilegal.

You can imagine the thoughts going through their minds " he he, we can do anything now, as if Mum or Dad smacks me, i'll tell Police!!!"

We are expecting a baby soon and i'm a believer in diciplin (not strict!), it never harmed me...

</rant off>

PS. I cannot spell and I cannot be bothered to cut and paste in word, sorry....

Trumble

Tell me about it.

Thats why this country is in the state its in - discipline - sorry <rant_on>Lack of it</rant_on>.

I could go on.

T.

And probably will - latter...

Anyone recommend a good way to remove the scratches / chips?

chockymonster

Just had eggs thrown at the house windows
all because I can't hear the door bell over the really loud music that I'm playing so that I can't hear the trick or treaters.


Probably would have been more charitable if they hadn't started knocking on friday and turning their noses up at sweets

RichardPON

Not amusing.

We had this at the last RR day - some kids thought it's be funny to throw stones at the assembled cars..... and mine had been out the paint shop two days!

What you want to do is load up a cr@p car with loads of your mates, a few baseball bats, and continue driving past till they egg your car. Making sure the car's not got ABS, you screech to a halt, 20p - ing the tyres but causing maximum effect, then pile out and proceed to chase them down the road. You probably wont catch them, but it'll make you feel ten times better

well i is a bug eye :rolleyes

Trumble: rant away, I don't blame you for a moment, I'd have the little sods put down. Why don't they just come round and say 'vandalism or cash'?

If it helps, I think Wax Wizard have a product or two (cleanse #2?) that should get a few light scratches out. A pressure washer worked wonders when I got my windows egged while I was on holiday a couple of months ago - the little ***** did four houses for no reason at all. Damn stuff was baked on solid by the time we got back [img]images/smilies/mad.gif[/img]

This year I stayed late at work and then took the missus out for a Thai meal - much nicer for all involved.

Why not just throw some hard boiled ones back at their parents car? Or a brick - its just as effective?

Kingsize K2

Some kids put an egg in my bl00dy pumpkin tonight

Like to take the top of their heads off and shove an egg in there...

Cheeky *******!

T3RBO

Our house was egged last year due to me saying no thanks...

All quiet this year but there was a story on front page of local evening paper about it being illegal (harrassment) and police are on look out!

Echo

Had my front window egged last year, just remembered to wash it down tomorrow :-)

STi-Frenchie

Trumble, if the scratches aren't too deep then Swissol Pre-wax (paint cleanser) might do the trick for you. Do note that you should wax the car after using the cleanser to protect the paint. It's not a bad idea to wax the car anyway what with winter coming in, salt going down on the roads etc. not to mention evil little gits with eggs.

jasey

When the little hooligans turn up trick or treating say trick and turn the hose on the little ******* (or better still the doberman).

TonyG

I was quite lucky then. 'Only' flour all over the rear of the car. Never heard the doorbell or anyone knocking. 'Trick or Treat'? More like Demand Money with Menaces.
PS Don't try removing eggs with hot water as a colleague of mine did last year. Boiling water + raw egg = cooked egg. On the other hand, cooked egg might be easier to remove.

We got them turn up last night.

As they bashed on the door I played with the alarm key fob & got her car to autostart [clifford alarm with autostart facility] I yanked open the door in full flight screaming what the **** are you doing to the car [now sitting there with the engine running] they all went weak at the knees saying its not us & then ran off, no eggs, flour or any other callers last night.

CrisPDuk

I stand the stepson (13) in the front garden, tied to a stake & covered in ketchup & nicely illuminated by a small bonfire on the front lawn. Works a treat

The bigger kids don't tend to come round our way because it is a cul-de-sac, and most of the parents round here have made it quite clear that deliquents & to55ers aren't welcome:angry:

milly

Hi all,
I am new to this and have just joined because i am getting a Scooby soon.
Some of you will scorn because of the job i do but i caught 3 of the fukc**s last night throwing eggs and fireworks at cars.
All 3 were nuicked and taken to spend 4 hours in cells then got charged with criminal damage, at court in a couple of weeks.
Hope this makes some of you feel better.
Cheers
Milly

It makes me feel a little bit better. I wasn't in last night but the filthy toerags still saw fit to throw eggs at my front door. By the time I came home a few hours later it was dried on and took me half and hour to wipe off. If i ever catch the barstewards......

Last nights antics have just re-enforced my belief that Halloween is such a bull**** event. I don't want to be a Scrooge type but any any event which gives licence for little gits to go round vandalising peoples property\cars is a no no in my book

Bah Humbug

MH

On the contrary Milly, im very interested in what the police do and especially the role of female officers.
Have you got any photos of yourself in uniform ??

milly

Sorry mate,
Milly is my nickname, short for millhouse from the Simpsons
real name is Paul

Not the same as eggs but went to pick my son up last night from his grandma's, got out of the car and got about 10 14year olds shouting trick or treat at me. I pointed out that I had just got out of the car and had nothing on me. One cheeky b*stard said "Oh, that's ok, we will take your car". Told em to try it!!! Anyway, they obviously didn't like my attitude cause they chucked lager all over the side of the car and legged it. T*ATS.

Alas

My scatty red psycho dog was in his element last night. Left the back door open so he could come & go at his leisure. He watches out the living room window and when he sees someone coming up the path sneaks round from the back of the house & lies in wait at the garden gate, located about 2 yards from the front door. When they get in range he lets them have it - barking, snarling etc. One kid peed himself last year
He can't get out but they don't wait around long enough to find out. Also if they gave him a sweet he'd probably let them nick the car as he's a big soft git.
I love Halloween
Alas
