As usual, the end of the story is the most revealing:

Quote:
Insp Phil Spurgeon of Greater Manchester police confirmed PCSOs responded to a complaint of youths kicking a ball against a house and advised them to move to the back garden.

PCSOs were said to have been called to the home previously following ball complaints.

In the Welsh Valleys it's known as having a face like a ripped dap.



Note to readers - a dap is a WV word meaning a plimsoll.


Note to younger readers - a plimsoll was a cheap form of footwear that later became extremely expensive trainers and worth being stabbed for.

When I taught at Cymer Afan Comprehensive School (1995) and Penlan, Swansea (1997-98), dap was universal for trainer. I don't think those kids would have recognised a plimsole if you stabbed them with it.

Which could mean nothing more than the neighbours are long term twunts. Our neighbours complained about the kids playing out because their shadows going across the window(with 8 foot of garden and a pavement between the children and the window) distracted them from watching tv. They went as far as to go to then council to get them to ban children playing, and were furious when they were basically laughed out of the office.

In this case I am on the side of the sad facer.

Impossible to tell... it could be that Mum says "gerrout and take yer ball wiv yer" as soon as Jeremy Kyle comes on and he is out of there until tea is ready, free to eff and jeff and flick the vees at neighbours who complain or it could be a couple of kids having a good natured kick around once in a while which winds up the local busybody.

What we need is further PLU establishment (is Mum married? Working? In council housing?) and, most importantly, a property valuation!

The Mailites have spoken - Green arrows for those comments having a go at the feral youth and his feckless mother...

I have a neighbour who let's his kid whack a ball against their wall while she loads her youngest into the car seat for the school run every morning. It is generally for about five minutes every day just after 8 o'clock, I assume he does the same in the afternoon. It is loud and reverbates around the street and I could see how that would get very annoying if it were more sustained or at a different hour of the day. On the other side of the coin (and assuming the DM has not ignored these steps) that would be sorted in my street by -

A bit of live and let live - I play music in moderation, other neighbours fix their cars on the drive and one nutter hoovers about 6 times a day, all part of terrace living (PLU FAIL!)

Speaking to the kids (which of course you can't do in this day and age - I read it in the DM)

Speaking to the parent(s)

Long before Old Bill and the papers got involved.

Wow, 5 x 26, that is a lot of...

We’ve had about 30 people apply but barely half of those turn up for interviews. It just wastes my time as well waiting for them.


Oh, maths fail.

I'm guessing we are not being told the full story in the allotment article. At some point in the last year the council will have asked this bloke to do something and he will have used his bad hip as an excuse for not doing it, the council has then subsequently turned the tables on him and said well if you are not fit enough to do everything expected of you perhaps you should make way for someone who is able to give it 100%.

The fact that this has been an issue for 2 years somehow missed the mail's version, and since he's had two hip replacements it's a bit more than 'in case he hurts his hip and sues' - it's a genuine fear that he could put himself in a wheelchair.

The council asked for a medical assessment*, which would presumably be done by his GP, certifying him fit to garden - which is entirely reasonable - and he didn't provide one, which is just inexplicable (unless his GP refused to give him said certification because he *wasn't* fit to garden).

The council assumed the latter reason - as they must. So their actions, whilst appearing harsh, are consistent.


* 2 years ago, I wonder? Puts it in a different light if he's been stonewalling them for that long...
