Destruction, Demolition and Deconstruction
The Lone Groover says "I've just taken down a pergola with a metre-deep Russian vine over the top. It had nine birds' nests in it, and had rotted all of the cross timbers. It covered the entire lawn and needs a skip of its own." What's the biggest/worst thing you've ever taken down? Tell us your tales of demolition and wanton destruction.

Buying a sledgehammer,
and using it to knock down the brick barbecue in our garden, was great fun. Not a great story, but I had fun - there's something very satisfying about just holding a sledgehammer.
My brother and I also knocked down a shed, but it was pretty rotten, so we mostly just tore it apart with our bare hands, only saving the more sturdy planks to prop against the aforementioned barbecue and kick/jump on, giving full vent to our inner-children.
