    I was on line last night,on GC. my computer faces the back garden window which gives a full view of the back garden when on line.i noticed my neighbours security light coming on and noticed 2 lads@ 14 yrs old running through ALL the back gardens and flower beds etc.:mad:.
    they were jumping lower fences and climbing over higher fences. fortunately this year i have planted several climbing roses which are now 8 ft high on a 6 ft x 30 ft fence. i now have them trained to the top of the fence and growing along the top of the fence :dbgrtmb:.

    when the two lads came to my fence they took a leap to grab the top of the fence to get over they got one shock. when they grabbed the top of the fence they also grabbed two handful's of rose thorn's. They ran screaming like banshees with some thorns in their paws.:hapfeet:.

    i did not have to move from my computer as i had a birds eye view. :dbgrtmb:.
    they wont attempt to climb that fence again:WINK1:.

          Marvellous :dbgrtmb:

          They'd have a bit of a shock if they tried to do that to my fence - four dogs chasing them off :WINK1:

            Nice one, that reminded me of an announcement on Liverpool's Radio City many years ago.

            Went something like this..."To the joker that climbed our transmitter last night & wedged a chair into it, you are now sterile as it was transmitting at the time"
