True, that's actually quite a good point, but I'd sooner not let these
arseholes know for sure who's tossing them, as I wouldn't be at all
surprised to see them prowling around my backyard at midnight with a can of
petrol, if they found out.  Anyway, as I said before, they appear to have
quietened down considerably since I sent a few vicious letter to the local
police, complete with times, estimated speeds, etc.  Funny how we change -
as a kid, I'd NEVER dob somebody in, but these days... fuck the lot of
them!
