How considerate of them. Blew my back tyre. It went in, point first. Proof it was positioned upright. The short distance I travelled, it was banging on the mudflap, luckily not scraping the wheel arch.
No damage to wheel arch or wheel and thankfully I was just pulling away from a corner, so only in second gear.

Law have been informed for future reference. The Farmer amd myself have a good idea who did it, but no proof. So, nothing can be done.

Have got the offending article and one knackered tyre.

Nice chap, eh!!!!!!

What is it?

Glad there was no damage apart from a tyre.

Lee247

Not me. It's called being in the wrong place at the wrong time. On going fued between Farmer and his neighbour.

Farmer has paid for the tyre

proof!!! blah, jam it in there eye ball

Lee247

No idea what it is Nat, I thought it looked like a file

Nasty thing though. I was going uphill from the corner. God help if it had been anyone coming down the bank at speed. Straight onto a busy main road, if they had lost control

When I was a child you used to be able to buy caltraps, but just searching on the internet it brings up some diet pill!

Have caltraps disapears along with other Ninja like things?

<< Sorry, not exactly relevant, a Caltrap would be easier than pushing that thing into the ground to burst the tyre >>

Its a farm track Steve. Loose gravel type stuff. Not tarmac.

You have no idea. These blokes are both in their late fifties. You'd think they'd know better

Nope, you've got the name wrong, but I'm not going to correct you, in case it gives someone ideas!

Glad damage was kept to a minimum Lesley. Why don't you bang their heads together and tell them to grow up.

Some blokes get nastier with age. There's deterent to getting nicking, setting a bad example when you are younger. So many "nutters" profess that having kids changed them for the better, having been OOC as a teenager.

Some don't become ex-nutters, they save it up for after the kids have left home.

Could the numpty that did that be charged under the "terrorist act"?

Lesley making her own special snow tyres only to find it isn't as easy as Blue Peter suggested.

So I did, I never realised it was spelt like that.

I should have spent more time paying attention in spelling and less playing with Shurikens, Butterfly knives and Nunchakus!

Right, you've got me now. What is it, Steve

Looks like part of an old Iron Railing to me.

Lee247

I was asking Steve what a caltrap is. Never heard of it.

Mick, no idea what the object is. Could have caused some damage though, other than just the tyre.

Lee247

Thanks.

I see what you mean, pretty nasty object. I think the fueding farmers are just looking for something easy to hand to get at each other. Think I will be taking a different route to work, next week

It looks like an old wood chisel to me Lee, minus its wooden handle.
