48 I have an open driveway and it looks like, when we're out, the local kids use it as a football pitch... Well, that was ok but now they've graduated to using it when my car is parked there.
Last time I they managed to bounce a football off the top of my car i told them to burger off down the park and they did, but it seems they have very short memory spans and they're back.
Short of setting up booby traps which would take up far too much time, and simply buying a gun and shooting them i'm stumped. How can i get rid of the little bar stewards for good?

sorted byThat's the thing - walk about half a mile, not even that probably, and there is a huge sportsground where they can kick away to their heart's content!
tried keeping one of the kids balls that came over the garden,the mother rung the police and told them i had "stolen" their property and i was ordered to give it back,the police were hopeless in helping me with the thudding problem,ruddy typical isnt it?!
I think the knife in the ball idea would suit us both.
I hate people like that who let their kids do whatever they please at the expense of everybody else. Maybe you should pay a local kid to go do it to her house :whistling: :lol:
Hahaha no, if it works and you're not REALLY going to cut their balls off then I say it's fine. But then I do hate most children.
The mother doesn't seem to care as long as they are not bothering her :x
They are cheeky as hell too
Except of course I would have to sell it for at least 20 grand to compensate for not being able to work anymore.
Not the best solution
They would probably nick it!
I wish i knew who they were - although i'm not yet sad enough to spy out of the window it may come to that! haha
I used to get cats damaging my car, they would sit on the warm bonnet. To stop this i sat in the front room with my alarm key fob and when the cat gets comfy on the bonnet - Press! The noisy alarm would make them poop themselves. Might work on Kids.
My housing association are always sending out letters about this sort of thing happening in area,amongst other children causing a nuisance in general.
Yeh cats do that,specially in Winter or go underneath for some heat.
My car isn't quite that high tech - i could just press the key and shout 'beep' - it convinced my friend :-D
It's gone past that stage now. Asking nicely would have worked when I was a kid, but these ones are just little *****.
Now that's quite a good one... It's private property after all
Is it a pavement, then your wall ... or a bit of ground, then your wall? If you have earth there, you could try planting some pyracantha, which is really spiky ...

That reminded me of what I used to get up to when we were kids :whistling:
We always dared each other to knock on the door of who ever went the maddest...
People who didn't respond were quickly forgotten about :?
I'd go mad if someone did it to my house now though :oops:
No - it's a driveway big enough for two cars, straight off of the road with the house round it - no plants - and the neighbours moved out so it's completely empty when i'm not there now! Came back today to find the wheelie bins had been moved to the back corner, into the neighbour's parking space. Cheeky little sods.
true, what car you got?
Haha I probably know more about footie than my OH and I didn't even know that Man utd won anything so really not something either of us can chat about!
And maybe not all kids are bad, but these ones are gobby little sh*ts and I can't be bothered to treat them like 'people' any more.
Something worth considerably less than that :thumbsup:
oh
Edit: does the driveway not have a gate?
Tightly round the neck????????? :whistling:
