Petty SabotageI once put magnets on my brothers collection of ZX81 cassettes, so when he attempted to play them, they were full of errors and yet apparently undamaged. Can you beat that? Tell us your tales of petty sabotage.

Sab lifeThis one still brings an evil grin to my face - even after 10 years.
Stood in Woolies with a mate - at about the age of 16, youthfull looking scallywags we were too. As I'm sure all of you of a non-colonial nature are aware all Woolies have a big pick and mix station near the cash registers.
A mum and kiddie wandering around looking at the plastic tat on sale - kiddie looking very bored. Cue me turning and saying to my mate in a fairly loud voice "You know, so long as you eat them in the shop, the pick and mix is free, you can have as many as you want."
The little glow of joy from the kiddies face was somethig to behold - mate and I departed to another bit of the shop to watch the young scamp start to fill his face with assorted chocolate goodness.
I couldn't have predicted that he and his Mum would be escorted from the shop? Could I?
His little cries of confusion as his Mum yeled at him still make me laugh today.
Pop, there goes another board virgin.
