Firefighters II

[poliphilo]

The kids had another go at burning down the fence on the far side of the back alley- only this time there were five of them when I went out with my bowl of water and  I got shouted at and had burning sticks waved in my face. I decided (if indeed you actually make decisions in these situations) that I'd call their bluff and just get on with the job- so I did and came out of it unscathed- but it has rattled me some.

I think it's great that you confronted them again -- but have you also thought about calling the police next time??

The police take hours (literally) to respond to minor incidents. The Fire Brigade would be a better bet.
