Get a big lamp and put on them from a distance, they'll soon sod off if they see that and they are up to no good. They won't know how many of there are, you can even do it from the confines of you own home- out a window for example.
If you do shoot someone, use catridges loaded with rocksalt. ;D

I was alone in the house one night before last Christmas,heard a noise in the yard,looked out of the window without switching the bedroom light on,saw three toerags by the workshop door. They were well illuminated by the security lights which are on all the time. I let the jack russells out and switched the floodlights on from the house,then locked the door!They made a fast getaway pursued by the dogs. The sheepdogs kennelled in the yard did not make a sound My heartbeat was louder.

Some kind soul came into our yard in February and put a match to the straw on top of the silage. Big mess to sort out and clean. Good news is he / she move a ladder to get on top of the silage clamp and the police have a DNA profile so if they get picked up for something else we may get to know who and why.

spot on wulvo if you confront every miscreant your luck will run out and meet a nutter.then your family will be left with out a father it aint big and it aint clever. Spike. Get a grip mate...it has nothing to do with being "big or clever"! Very few, if any, of these thieving toe-rags are psychopathic killers!! In fact I would go as far as saying that the majority of the thieving scum bags are down right cowards! O.K, so if you apprehend someone & they turn violent...you make a choice depending on how you see the situation! We can not go through life being afraid of challenging people that probably have no good reason for being where they are, or doing what they are doing.....just in case one day we meet a nutter! What sort of deterrent is it to these low-lives’s...if we all sit in doors & turn the lights on??? How would some of you feel if a vehicle that was "acting suspiciously" on or near your property...was later involved in a robbery where an elderly person had their life savings stolen??? You can't give the police a registration number or any other details if you are sat in doors playing with the light switch!! I agree with Phil here but would add that the Teddy Roosevelt approach seldom fails. Talk softly and carry a big stick |

I hate the way they steal heating oil from the houses where pensioners and the elderly live. One old lady in the village where I worked had hers stolen, they damaged the tank too. I got our foreman to weld it up. They are miserable thieving bas...ds.  |
