What should I do about those pesky kids?

OK I had a brain wave the other day, about how to deal with the local delinquents around here, who persistently litter the cycle path I use daily with broken glass.

They stand around this wasteland that overlooks the cycle path, and throw empty bottle of buckfast, WKD and bacardi breezers onto the cycle path when they are finished drinking them, subsequently causing myself and no doubt many other cyclists to suffer many punctures.

I had to fork out a load of money recently for a new back tyre, with a special material inside to prevent sharp objects from puncturing the inner tube, and I've also had to buy special plastic inner lining for the front wheel. Before this I was spending day after day fixing puncture after puncture, all because these fuckers think it's funny to smash bottles on the cycle path.

Despite that I have stille suffered the odd puncture, and you have to be careful that you don't run over a large splinter of glass that woud probably enough to rip my expensive new back tyre a new ass.

So I got to thinking the other day, as I passed them standing on the bridge, what can I do to stop these little bastards from doing this all the time, because it's coming into the summer and they are gonna be hanging around there a lot more.

I could report them to the police, but that would probably achieve nothing. I could have a word with them, and they might listen, but as soon as my back was turned they'd just do it more to spite me. And if they didn't then some other gang of scutter heads would come along and do it.

Then I came up with a cunning plan, something that might stop them from hanging about there altogether.

What if I were to go to the bridge, and smear dog poo all over it, so next time they decided to hang around there they'd end up inadvertently getting shit all over their clothes, and that would serve them bloody well right!

Then they might think twice about hanging around there and go somewhere else!

But, it's not really a very nice thing to do is it, and there's a health issue as well.

Did make me laugh when I thought of it though.

Does anyone else have any ideas as to what to do about these pesky kids, without potentially incriminating myself?

 

Why As Us......When The Answer Is As Clear As Crystal...

Do You Not Own An A.K.47..?

Of Course You Do..

I Do....

All My Friends And Neighbours Do.....

Soooooo... The Answer Was Obvious To You Right From The Beginning.

And Yet Still You Chose To Waste Our Time..:toetap05:.



Cheers Glen.

 

mmmmm could just use the honest, blunt confront them approach in a nice sort of way .. n say look guys,,, i been a youngun etc but damn,,, n explain to them if they wanna hang out to use a trash can (provide it if you gotta).

Dunno how it will work but seems a better idea than smearing shit all over.. ya could kick their asses,,, but i know i aint as into that as i was 10 years ago..

 

I can not imagine these types of kids listening to what you have to say. They will just do twice as much to spite you, after they are done laughing at you for trying to reason with them.

Who takes care of the park? The people who have to clean it up will likely be interested in who is making the mess.

 

Give this aticle

To the parents

If you don't know the parents, find them. If all else fails, follow the rules outlined in the above article.

That will show them.

 

I would go this route way before i go smearing dog shit all over the place. LOL

:cheers2:

 

Dogshit everywhere probably *would* work.

One way of vacating the place of kids would be to have it portrayed in the press etc as some sort of "gay cruising" area.Then they'll think they won't look so "cool" hanging round there.

The downside might be that your neighbours/+Mrs might start talking about *you*....

Therefore, I propose u cycle thro in fancy dress disguise.Leather gear , walrus moustache and doing the YMCA actions while listening to yoor Ipod..

 

i think the dogshit idea is fantastic.

 

I say go with the poo... it maybe a heath issue, but so it someone wrecking because they ran over broken glass and the tire busts....

I say go poo!

 

Would you credit it. I just went out for a walk in the forest/bog land whilst it was such a pleasant evening, and I only gone and stood in doodah! I thought you only got bad karma if you did some bad, not thinking about it!

Och most of the kids a round here are alright, I can't blame them for hanging around there drinking alcopops, because there's fuck all else to do around here. Though, some of them are going round vandalising stuff, they have parties in the forest and leave all their rubbish scattered everywhere behind them, sometimes they throw things at you when you walk past them, I found the remnants of something that looked liked possibly badger baiting the other day, and they'll square up to you in the street knowing fine well you can't really do much about it. Some of them are right little bastards, they teach them very well how to be morons at school over here.

Talking to them isn't really going to make much of a difference because they are all doing it, I'm sure I was no innocent party to that when I was younger myself either.

I just thought the dog poo revenge idea was funny, and wanted to share it with you all. I wont do it though, of course, because someone could get ill from it.

 

The local council, who are more concerned with making the town centre look perfectly sculpted than clearing up any of the mess people leave in the countryside. They have people on community service driving around town all day in these so called "green machines", that collect litter and fag ends and that, damned noisy things. They never think to send them down the fucking cycle paths! Actually they did the other day I think, or someone went down and cleaned up all the glass.

I have a few bones I want to pick with them, but really I can't be bothered because they probably wont do anything about, they are fucking useless and pretty much a black hole for locally generated revenue.

 

Bring along a boombox too with some Village People on it.

Leave some pamphlets on the bridge of the Village People and some other related material?

2 words...paint-ball...

 

Get solid tubes for your tires.

 

aren't they a bit impractical, i mean how do i get it on my wheel?

 

Exactly...!

 

Well, it kind of is a pain in the ass, but never changing another tube sort of makes the pain in the ass of putting them on once worth it.
