Absobloodylutely livid!!!

In all honesty, thats a trully horrible thing to do to someone.

He had absolutely no right to touch your tree. Im honestly starting to despair at how unsociable our society is becoming.

Im also torn between doing the right thing and rising above it...after all, he's old, miserable, and dying. Surely you have the upper hand already?

However, ive been subjected to so much awful behaviour in the last few years that Ive gone full circle and am now making (seemingly more frequent) revenge missions.
Rising above just doesnt taste as good as sweet revenge.

Its got to be clever though, and I like subtle revenge, whereby they may suspect its you, but can never actually be sure....

So far the junk mail idea sounds the best option, its incredible how much crap you can send someones way. But I would take it further than that and attack from multiple directions.
Late night action is always delightfully rewarding...
Sugar in petrol tank, genius and hard to trace but quite blatant.
Puntures in tread of car tyre, very hard to distinguish from a genuine puncture.
A smoky bonfire when their washing is hung out... perhaps too blatant again.
non-confrontational vigilantism works best for me.
Just plant the seed in his mind that your fooking with him, and let the seed grow.
Take your time and think about some juicy sweet revenge. It can be months or years later when you exact your cunning plan, they still may suspect you, but never be sure.

I would contact the CAB: http://www.citizensadvice.org.uk/

It's free and many of the volunteers are solicitors, or were, know the law and will be able to advise you whether it's worth persuing through legal channels. I found them very helpful when I needed some advice a while back.

Perhaps not as exciting or gratifying as knocking the stuffing out of him, or damaging his property, but you won't end up with a criminal record.

yeah pm a few us his address and we'll get it sent from from all over the place

go down to you local breakers and get some spare wheel nuts, just leave one every so often on his drive, if he has wheel trims that hide the nuts he'll never be sure their not one of his and will spend a few minutes pulling them off to look :twisted:

place an add in the local shops, B&Q etc for items for sale, personal services use the business card machine at the local shopping center, and post a few around call boxes and service station toilets

go to the garden center, buy some grass seed and some fertiliser, mixed it up and then when he's out go and write TOSSA with it across his lawn, then sit back and watch it it grow

if his car is parked outside? and its easy to get too? a good handful of grease on the exhaust down pipe! after a while it get hot and starts to smoke! that should cause another stroke or at least get him to soil his pants when he thinks his cars on fire :twisted:

Who cares about a criminal record anyway as nowadays you can kill someone and be out in a couple of years LEYLANDII is a quality one,so is paint stripper on a brush and flicked on his car as you ride by Another good one is to hammer his outside tap off the wall when he is out You can also buy lovely little bags of upholstery tacs from wilkinsons for about 59p throw them through his letter box,old people can not see them as they are very small
A glass bottle under his tyre is great it will make him jump when he drives off,
also superglue in his locks is quality,house,car,everything
I thought that scum was only existent in the young :shock: :twisted:

Some pretty mean tactics/ideas here....reckon it's worth doing some of them though as old or not they had no right to do that to your tree.

 

[alanf]

horse radish plants, I'm told they are a bitch to get rid of and once set spread like crazy! again a packet of seeds from the garden center and away you go on his prize lawn :twisted:

 

[jimihendrix]

Jeesis, i'm shocked :shock: , i thought this site was a nice, laid back, easy going place, definetely would'nt mess with you lot

I'd recommend all of the above

Personaly i'd have used a less subtle approach, i'd have chapped his door and stuck the nut in him but then i'm from Glasgow

Revenge is a dish best served cold.

All you need to do is make him think you are exacting your revenge on him (while all the time you are formulating your schemes)

Let the Jehovah's witness know he'd like a visit.... weekly.
Advertise some stuff for him in the free ad's/gumtree.

one great one that happened to me by accident was hiring a skip to clear my old garage away - it went in front of a very miserable Victor Meldrew types house (though to be fair he makes Meldrew look like Frankie Howard...) - not intentional mind and the bloke went berserk about it!
(the skip driver just put it where there was a space!) - good for a weeks worth of irritating the life out of him - plus you might get a few bikes out of it too!

Buy some fresh chillis.
Wait until they have washing out, when his kex are strung proudly on the line in full pantal glory.
Slice chilli in have and rub upon gusset of all pants.

Sorrr-TED-ahhh..............

I have to say the unhinged and vindictive schemes coming out here is truly shocking. :shock:

I'm proud of you all.
