At the black isle show this year a local supplier of kiln dried logs decided to put hundreds/thousands of flyers out in the car park under people's wipers. Not sure if they had permission from the show organisers, doubt it.

 

Unfortunately they used cheap double sided flyers, there was a little rain during the day and half the paper stuck itself to the windscreens!

 

The car park fields were full of people at 5pm trying to scrape the cr@p off. Not the best advert for your business! :001_rolleyes:

 

Legend:lol:

I would have thought that the phone call could be traced these days by the authorities. The problem is there is no hard evidence that would stand up in court, just your word against an accused. No way that would ever get to court.

 

Some sort of recording device on the phone, then repeat but 5 houses at a time. Record the following phone call, that should be enough to get the perpetrator at least fined/bound over to keep the peace.
