thieving gits, i caught someone having a go at my chipper out in the yard and let em have a few rounds with the browning out kitchen window, ended up blowing a hole in diesel tank next to it but i aint had any trouble since.

Did a similar thing myself some years back (although I avoided shooting a hole in the diesel tank) - again, not been bothered since.

Bad move with the gun, you let them know youve got firearms at home. Saying that I would have been sorely tempted myself. Choke it full and full that way you wont hit youre tank, just the vermin.

About time the CPS, police and magistrates took crime seriously, and dealt a bit more firmly with the scum. Too many do-gooders crying "civil liberties" in this country. Sorry to hear this ICTrees :mad1:

The only bad thing about the gun is that either they are going to rob someone who doesn’t shoot at them.

There is a slight chance they could come armed next time! :scared1: I would not make it piblic knowledge if you had discharged a firearm at Scum! YOU COULD LOOSE YOUR TICKET! :mad1:

ictrees, i got done over in march but the little *&(^^% were disturbed before they could get too much, as it was they got away with just over a grands worth of gear but left my climbing kit and lowering kit and winch. You could probably have a mosey over to york farm sales and let them know what kit youve had nicked and they will keep an eye out for it and let the police know. I'll keep my eye out as well as i'm not far from you and i'll pass the word round over here.
