Dave M Posted April 23, 2014 Report Share Posted April 23, 2014 Has anyone else spotted them? They arrived 2 weeks ago (10th April) near the BASF chemical plant. I live right round the corner and I actually saw the first few caravans sitting there. The only reason I noticed was because of 4 or 5 manky looking kids were throwing stones outside the McBeals roll shop, and just inside the car park there was a massive fire going.Today I've noticed more caravans and a massive pile of furniture in a giant heap (presumably for another massive fire).You can see it if you stand on the platform of the hawkead railway station, or from the pavement going over the railway line on Hawkhead road.I had a letter from BASF (the land owners) today saying that the travellers entered the site illegally and that the police have been informed.I am wondering why this hasn't been reported in any local news. There's nothing I can find on the internet either. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Drew Posted April 24, 2014 Report Share Posted April 24, 2014 I hope the authorities have water cannons at the ready, and I am sure there must be a box or two of rubber bullets and a few CS gas cannisters left over from 'The Troubles'.

No need, there must be some people who need some furniture, get them down there and the fire hazard is gone. C'mon the Gypsies. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pozbaird Posted April 24, 2014 Report Share Posted April 24, 2014 Brilliant. It's hard enough to get locals down to the ground, then the Hawkhead Road Celtic Supporters Club moves in. One town, one team ya' basturts'. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lord Pityme Posted April 24, 2014 Report Share Posted April 24, 2014 How infuriating! Who do these 'Travellers' think they are? The bare-faced cheek of them living on a derelict industrial site car park... And no doubt they'll have their towels out first thing in the morning on the dilapidated chairs round the big fecking mucky puddles too? It makes your feckin blood boil..! I wonder... I just wonder maybe I should go ahead with that block-paving quote, given the subsequent guarantees about quality of workmanship from the fat swarthy chap with the beat-up bowler hat?

TediousTom Posted April 24, 2014 Report Share Posted April 24, 2014 Throughout my many decades on this planet I have learned a thing or two, some from the mistakes of other's and more often due to my own stupidity. 1) Your gutters are fine, they do not need suddenly checked 2) A good quality driveway costs a lot more that £1500 and you do NOT need to give any proper company the money up front for materials. 3) It is good practice to keep your doors locked 4) You roof is fine and you do not suddenly need it checked. 5) The man at your front door selling you a cut price sofa probably stole it. 6) The man at your front door selling you a cut price lawnmower probably stole it. 7) The man at your front door selling you a cut price generator probably stole it. 8) You do NOT have any consumer rights when you purchase things from a man at your front door. 9) Elderly people are vulnerable, if you have an elderly relative then go visit them and if need be YOU check the roof and gutters (or pretend you did, just give them peace of mind) 10) If you have a van it is NOT a good idea to keep your tools/wares in the van overnight and especially not in full view. Now that I just happened to mention those facts may I say it is apparently a wonderful thing to have diversity of culture. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dave would be able to confirm Drew, in regard to your first post in this thread - no water cannons are available. They're currently installed at Cappielow Stadium where they are used to assist the home crowd get their fortnightly wash. More information to follow soon as I have it.

shull Posted April 24, 2014 Report Share Posted April 24, 2014 Show the visitors what a wonderful community Paisley and it's Buddies are. Let them stay and show them our hospitality.

Deekthebuddie Posted April 27, 2014 Report Share Posted April 27, 2014 The thieving bastards set up camp about a mile up the road from where i stay and suddenly burgalaries, thefts from gardens etc increased big time and as soon as the Rozzers went to visit, they gave the 'Discrimation' script.. The only camps they should be in are Concentration camps Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
