in Feb of this year i was in the shower, about 6pm ish, when the two Cockers in the yard start going off their heads.

 

Jumped out and pulled a robe on to find that 3 fellas in our yard helping them selves to gear from our container. (it wasnt locked, it was only 6pm !!! i was going in there after my shower to make some chains)

 

Went flying up the garden shouting and picking up gravel from the drive to throw at them.

 

They legged it over the 6' fence at the top of the garden, i stopped at the fence and was leaning over shouting all sorts of obscenities at them when one of them stopped and pulled a proper Jim Bowie type knife and told me ( in a quaint Irish accent) in no uncertain terms where he was going to put it if i came out of the house the next time they called.

 

I loved this and told him only a daft ***** would bring a knife to a gun fight, in fact if he wanted to give me five mins to put some kecks on he was quite welcome to jump over the wall with his mates. if he could get through me he could help himself to the gear !!!!

 

Didnt take the offer up :lol:

 

I'm not a hard man, but Mr AYA with 50 grain BB cartridges is !!!
