Many many years ago a family friend used to work on large civil engineering projects and one night a load of tools and equipment disappeared from the site he was on - a travellers site was a field away.
The travellers were approached and denied all knowledge despite the fact that items were clearly on view on their site. They suggested that for a finders fee they may be able to locate the missing items. The old boy saw red (he has a very short fuse) and suggested that if the gear wasn't returned the brightest van on their site may become a pancake after he ran the Caterpillar over it ... they laughed. Well he got back to site, fired up the D9 and spent the next couple of hours crossing the field (they don't move too quick). The travellers didn't think he was up to it until he went through the fence, over a shed and then he squared up to the shiniest van. Funnily enough at that point stuff reappeared and was returned, they didn't have any problems on site after that

Guys, this is an A8/S8 forum, not a political site. I'm not nailing any colours to the mast but would suggest that some folk might find some of these comments offensive.
Let's talk about the cars - there must be plenty of political forums to air these views. |

Ok, I'm closing this thread, not because I have an objection to the content particularly, but more because its crossed over from a hot current affairs topic of Dales Farm into a similar, but different topic of a proposed site by a different council, and if I seperate them now, Ice_blues comments have no logical home, which I've no interest in censoring, and Im lacking the energy to fix that
 To be clear, Daily Banter is a place to post pretty much anything, but for clarity, lets start new threads for new stuff, which I see this as.
