The reason I'm up early,(intruders)

[geoff]

Rose from my slumber a little after 3 this morning to my dog growling & ny gates could be heard not doing their own thing.

Some herbert was making an attempt (the dog gets another biscuit).

I didnt bother with me rambo armband,just headed for the door with a 'sturdy walking aid',suffice to say persuit was futile,on getting outside the mutt was going balistic & after getting the gates unlocked & getting out front all I could now hear was the blood knocking round my head.

 

Daft thing about it is I'm putting a caravan in my yard to sleep in,so Im right on top of my gear next week,as I'm stripping out a couple of rooms for renovation work,and expect to stay in the van until the winter drives me back in again,I would have had a better chance of upsetting my visiter from that vantage.

 

So heads up lads,dont give them the chance.

Had the same thing here at the weekend. 2am Sunday and the dogs do their nana. Wake up to see my neighbour, stark bollock naked, chasing some low life down the street. Of course I took off in the car after him. Reckon it was some opportunists trying to find easy pickings and the neighbour had left his car open at the end of the day. Dogs woke him too but he didn't bother dressing. He is now known as the white elephant Unfortunately we didn't get them but reckon if they caught sight of him they'd be mentally scarred for life.

A mate of mine was stoped in a layby carving and at 2am the boy racers (or doggers!!) woke him...he thought he was being robbed, and they were met with a tattooed, dreadlocked guy wearing nothing other than chainsaw boots and an axe.....the layby was pretty quiet after that!

Old bill found it most amusing, his wife and mine a little embarressing but kudos to the guy, it was a freezing night so we were all spared somewhat. i hoped I'd get to him before some of the locals thought there was a nutter loose.

I used to live in my van, one day after a hedgelaying job near Market Drayton I made the misstake of parking up between two pubs, at some point in the night I got woken by some noise at the back door. When I opened it, (holding my broad-axe just in case) the two guys trying to undo the knots that held my steps on fell over backwards trying to get away. I spoke to a policewoman the next day who reckoned the knots would have baffled them beyond reason anyway if they were local guys.
