    Have you though that it might not be a *bastard* who did it but someone who was taken ill and had to park in a hurry. Or something else.

    Life is too short. Breath deeply and forget about it for a day or two. Live and let live

    What about that suspicious package on the back seat?

    An alternative is to get a can of expansion foam from Screwfix and use a long tube to block the exhaust. The result; car won’t turn over.

    The garage will change the battery and starter motor. They will then think that either the valves are stuck or the cam belt has slipped and strip it down.

    While parked in the street I was blocked in by an inconsiderate c^^£ who also carelessly left his car on full lock. I shunted it in to the middle of the road and left.

    Personally I would get one of those lockable bollards and trap the car in. Then use it to make sure my space could not be used in the future.

    If the chap comes along then shoot him in the 4rse. It will take about 5 minutes for him to die in absolute agony.
