    Give up now and learn to live with it or move. You have less chance than a snowball in a hot place of doing anything about this. Dont waste anymore energy on it.

    They'll be more interested if they think it's being used as an extension to the house, so that the house becomes liable for more poll tax. The council will demand money with menaces, the caravan owners will have the devils own job demonstrating that they shouldn't have to play more and the council won't listen anyway, so the caravan will disappear in order to save its owners money.

    plant some drugs in it that you got from your ska mates and then call the police and say you think people have been selling drugs to children from it

    I'm definitely on the right forum then when this is the response of a "moderator".

    Really "moderate"....

    Not a bad idea though.

    LOL ( as young people say).

    Just to clarfify, this is the latest in a series of problems we have had with the landlord (and to a lesser extent the residents). People I am on nodding terms with on the estate stop me to give sympathies about having that caravan outside.

    I guess it will go away eventually. It also obstructs the view of the neighbours on the other side much more so I guess its possible they will take some action.

    Still, I shall add Reform of Restrictive Covenants to my list of things to do for when I'm Prime Minister.

    Hope this situation gets sorted....but these sweeping generalisations about Ska audiences and Skinheads are a bit much! (Alright if I send you some copies of our CD and t-shirts to flog when they turn up to help you out...?!)
