Major Rant

I always read your name as green sleeves, until today

I always read your name as green sleeves, until today

You are not alone Bal, but just for the first verse of Green Sleeves

Alas, my love, you do me wrong,
To cast me off discourteously.
For I have loved you well and long,
Delighting in your company.

Greens sleeves was all my joy
Green sleeves was my delight
Green sleeves was my heart of gold
And who but my LADY green sleeves

I actually love that song, (and I thought you were of the female persuasion too)

Dark alleys comes to mind

With a piece of 2" x 4". Not diplomatic or PC but it would deffo work with scroats like that.

I have got to ask why you thought that Bal?

That will start tongues wagging

What point is there to this kind of destruction? The knuckle draggers that do this kind of thing would, if questioned, just grunt that it was "just a laugh". I wonder what they would do if I jumped out of my shed and shouted "boo" during such an attack? Probably run off screaming like the pathetic imbeciles they are.

You'd love to smash their ankles with a sledge hammer I'm sure, but of course defending one's property can just as easily land you in jail.

Know what I'd do? Send them on a one way trip to North Korea.

Eventually though, you find out who's done you wrong. If you live in the same community as these idiots, word will eventually get to you about someone talking about what they've done, they're too stupid to be able to resist boating about it. Then you get even....silently and effectively.

Very sorry to hear this news, GL - there are enough pests to deal with while growing our own, without human ones being added to the equation!

[Greenleaves]

Think the DPRK haircut would be humiliation enough, but the sentiment is right

Thanks Noosner

So sorry mate. I would need a good rant too if it happened to me.

Some of my neighbours and myself have taken over a small piece of property from the council and have transformed the site into allotments and I must say that that is our biggest worry also.

[Greenleaves]

Hopefully it will never occur, now I have calm down a bit I can put it into context with all those suffering much greater hardships.

[Martin H]

So sorry to hear this, I do hope something can be salvaged.

It's the biggest worry of every allotment site. Once the enemy get in they run amok like foxes in a henhouse.

Parents don't seem to care, police don't seem inclined to do anything, the only solution is to treat the human vermin the same as other natural enemies of our crops. Within the extent permitted by law, of course.

After a spate of shed-torching last year, our allotment society was able to obtain funds for 3 metre high security fencing round the entire site. We've had no trouble from human vermin since, but I feel it's only a matter of time before they find a way in.

[Greenleaves]

Thanks Martin, we have 3mtr fencing and not easy to climb....have to wonder if it is not kids but a disgruntled former plot holder who still has a key, but dont want to believe that
