Re: One Down - Several to Go!
That's really ashame. Why can't kids these days enjoy the old pasttime of cow tipping. It's so much more challenging.
I do hope they catch the little buggers. Nice punishment for em (after Rindy gets through with em) would be to put em in pink coveralls and have them all scrub the walks with toothbrushes! IMHO

Re: One Down - Several to Go!

Re: One Down - Several to Go!
cctv is ok but where are the local cops , why are they not walking the town center beat, one of the 'worst' moments in my life was being grabbed by the scruff of the neck by a foot patrol cop whilst in the middle of a quick s**g in a recessed doorway in the Warner st. shopping arcade , aside from threats to notify the girls parents and arrest me for public intoxication/indecency the possibility of our names and addresses appearing in the local press was enough for us to proceed quietly on our way home, (me with my tail between my legs )

Lol, you should be glad there was no CCTV, you'd be all over the internet now, never mind the local paper.

unfortunately nowadays people dont get involved out of fear of retribution or prosecution/lawsuits themselves

Why, was only having a quick s**g .. snog, wasn't he ? That not bad.
This incident has really upset me ... it does beggar belief .. like everyone else, just don't get it .
What will they do to replace it .. will they have to plant another sapling, or can it be put together again with sticky plaster ? .. well, you know, something like that.

Re: One Down - Several to Go!
What on earth do these nunpties gain from doing such a thing? Did that poor tree look at them the wrong way or hit them on the way past? It must have been a real hard man that did this and he must be walking around bragging about the night he took a tree on and won. Wouldnt matter if it was caught on CCTV because if he was arrested and taken before the beaks it would have been a case of exuberent youthful jinx slap on the wrist and dont do it again.

Re: One Down - Several to Go!
Well, Monday 6th November 9pm. Do we know if the council have bothered to remove this poor tree yet? Bloody useless. Like the fact that litter is left to blow all over broadway all weekend. In Manchester the cleaners are out at the end of every day making it ready for the next one.
PS Chewing gum should be banned. People who need to permanently chew must have evolved from cows. (thats an insult to the cows!).

How is that the Council's fault. Have you ever tried to remove it from outside your own house? Then multiply that effort a few hundred times and then say its HBC's fault. It is the dirty little gits who drop its fault.
