Make robbers life hell

[GazzaTechno]

Getting close ain't it? Ooooh, goose bumps! Anyways. Theiving scum. I think everyone should make a conscious effort this year to leave their expensive gear at home or leave it hidden in their cars. Finished using your phone? Stick it in your pocket! NOW!!! Don't throw it on your sleeping bag, two more VC's and you'll forget it's there. Chilling out to the Flaming Lips on your iPod? Have it playing in your pocket, that way, if you are wasted and fall asleep, no twat can steal it. Anything really that you don't want nicked can go in your pocket! Now, I know you can't get everything in your pocket (bottles, cans etc) but if your booze gets nicked, what's the damage? It's the personal expensive stuff you need to worry about.

Don't lock your tent! They'll just cut it. A little tip. Make a decoy booze pile. Get a load of cans or shite wine and put it nearset your tents opening or in the porch bit if you have one. If some spaz does come into your tent looking for booze, they'l stumble on this little pile and quickly grab it (thieves go for easy and fast). However, keep your REAL supply at the back of your tent, under a sleeping bag or something (NOT A BAG FULL OF YOUR DESIGNER CLOTHES, IPOD, PHONE, WALLET etc).

This year, let's try and make it impossible for the robbers to take anything worth having. Failing that, if you catch one, make a tight fist with your hand and beat his/her face until you are both crying and ask other campers to join in.

See you there.

best tactic is to leave a steaming big turd right in the porch. as soon as they smell and see that there not gonna wanna go in your tent. extreme...but effective.
