Just a stones throw away.....

To not confess this......I took a huge stone off the puppy and hurled it across the hedge to see it flying like a bomb and rather than landing in the hedge, as they always do, it fucking well lands on the neighbour's greenhouse. I haven't dare show my face all afternoon. I don't need to tell them it was me, do I?

Yes you do and sorry but GrinGrinGrin.

JustinHawkinstooearlymustdache · 11/11/2011 20:06

So you threw a stone over the hedge and broke your neighbours greenhouse Shock

how big was the boulder stone?

SwearyMary · 11/11/2011 20:08

It only broke one pane of glass.

Um, if I were you I would go and apologise, offer to pay for the damage and be thankful it didn't land on someone's head. Not funny really.

Hahahahahahahahaaaaaaaahahahahahaaaaaaaaaa

Haven't you got a child or man you can blame

If you confess, you will have to pay for it. If you don't, they will claim off the insurance, but they will have to pay the excess (which depending on their policy, could be a lot of money). If they don't claim, they will have to pay for replacing the glass you broke.

Are they nice neighbours? Morally, you should confess and put it right, but for me it would hinge on whether they were nice (which I know is wrong, but that's the honest truth of it).

JustinHawkinstooearlymustdache · 11/11/2011 20:12

Karma has it for me, how well do you know the neighbour?

AnotherEmptyNest · 11/11/2011 20:12

A pane of glass doesn't cost much.

Bit daft to throw a stone and not know where it could land......

SwearyMary · 11/11/2011 20:13

No, they are cunts not very nice.

keep schtum then, i would

tralalala · 11/11/2011 20:13

of course you have to tell them!

GrownUpSparkler · 11/11/2011 20:16

If they are bad neighbours I would think it was karma leading my innocent mind, and who argues with unstoppable forces. If they are good neighbours I'd see if I could live with the guilt, then if I couldn't blame a child.

Or in reality rush right round and apologise with a chequebook.

fedupofnamechanging · 11/11/2011 20:16

Well in that case, don't confess and don't feel guilty.

Ask yourself, would they tell you, if it was the other way around? If the answer is no, then think no more about it.

Say nowt

AmazingBouncingFerret · 11/11/2011 20:17

So it was you that broke my fucking greenhouse! I will find you. I will hunt you down like a dog and make you pay for my window.

Well, I'm saying nothing. The bastard deserved it, he lit a bonfire last summer and made all my clothes smell. Selfish cunt.

Don't say anything and live with the guilt then. :o And the bad karma

eaglewings · 11/11/2011 20:42

If you do not tell, then I don't have to tell my neighbour it was my car that smashed his rediculous cones around his parking space
:)

SnapesMistress · 11/11/2011 21:53

:o If they are dicks then I would do nothing.
