VandalismI got a load of chalk, felt-tip markers and paint from friends one Christmas in a thinly-veiled attempt to get me involved with their plan to vandalise the toilets at the local park. My downfall: Signing my name. Tell us your stories of anti-social behaviour.
Thanks to Bamboo Steamer for the suggestion

See this statue of Alderman James Stuart ?maps.google.co.uk/?ie=UTF8&ll=53.757297,-0.308081&spn=0,0.001714&z=19&layer=c&cbll=53.757171,-0.308209&panoid=e5bh64A6l0tRVeKmkfsZRg&cbp=12,295.89,,0,-0.63
Can you guess why it has railings around it? On several occcasions about 5 years ago, someone kept leaving a traffic cone on it's head. It would sit there for a few days before it was removed. Then another would appear. This happened about 4 or 5 times. But then someone painted his trousers bright strawberry-milkshake pink. It stayed like that for a few weeks before it was painted over/washed off and the fence erected.
If someone was going to go to all the effort of painting the statue, you'd think some 3ft railings wouldn't deter them.

Ha!I love the fact that Google has decided to blur out the face on the statue.
I know it's an automated process, but I still find it hilarious.
