ok, so tonight i was arriving at my fields and i see smoke coming up from part of the wooded bit, think oh bugger, better ring the brigade

get there and theres a man, his missus and half a dozen kids HAVING A CAMPFIRE in my field

he was actually quite polite when i enquired as to what he thought he was doing, said he thought it was public land...


mmm, the fencing and the horses etc. didnt give you a clue then?!

anyway, told him it was private land and he apologises puts out his fire and goes, but still...

someone has chopped down 3 trees in the last week or so, god knows what they think theyre doing! smaller ones, nothing mature, but theyre my trees and i like them!

i have a footpath through, hedged, but people nip off it and please them-bleeding-selves, other half wants to lay mines or something but i told him its not allowed

We thought they might be quite useful at the end of our lane

blimey, its hard enough to keep my OH legal as it is without gun turretts, pmsl!

note to self...keep OH away from great yorkshire show...
 
I can sympathise. We have to fix our fences on a weekly basis in the school holidays, and often find kids have lit a fire/built a camp in the depths of our wood - we're on the very edge of town, nearest 'country'.

We back onto a park, most of the bit of park nearest us are fenced off due to deep lagoons (park was a tip), we've a fence/hedges of bramble down the sides, a locked gate to the road, and a fence and a stream at the bottom. Far too frequently we find dog walkers coming up through our top field to our back garden asking the way out to the park/road (as the top field is heavy bramble hedges apart from our gate/garden fence). We have to explain they have to go back the way they came, I am NOT allowing them through our garden (short cut under the car port - we take pony that way to save opening 2 locked gates), only to find them protest they'll have to climb the fence/gate/cross the stream, well WTF were they doing crossing the fence/gate/stream in the first place???

Best not show my OH that, he really wants one of those rabbit burrow exploders (another problem, the council will not do any pest control in the park 'as the public like to see bunny rabbits'). I have to keep reminding him as it's ex landfill in the park there might be a rather large series of explosions....

i dont get it pedantic, they go for a walk in the country, then take all the shortcuts they can

one guy was chatting to me at the field gate, hes a bit of a nuisance actually, and was saying something about how an alchoholic drink can be made from birch? sap by drilling a hole in the trunk, and if i see a demi-john attatched to a tree itll be him!!!

why do people think its ok to do what they want where they want?!

anyway told him in no uncertain terms he wasnt to touch my trees
