Let me see what I was going to select (I've got it mostly done but not posted until the 31st). I may need to revise. |

 good thread that. i steered clear of the entire glazer debate. just an excuse for non-yanks to call you a glory hunter and get pissed off, nothing to gain by talking about it with people on their high horses. |

Must be one of my crowning moments - it was me against the whole fucking island.  Half of them were Dubai Devil anyway.

Congratulations by the way - I might try it this weekend, right after I've finished cow tipping. |

Every day we'd go out there into this secluded coppice where the house stood abandoned and first we climbed onto the roof and threw most of the tiles down to the ground, then be smashed out all the windows and knocked all the plaster off the walls, then we began using these chunky blocks of wood as battering rams to knock out bricks. The whole thing was fraught with danger and we'd often hurt ourselves; we became really good at it after a while though and we'd work hard into the night gradually demolishing bits of the house. After a few months the house still stood, but it was severely structurally unstable; we were sat up in the roof beams one day chatting about random shit when this loud crack sounded and a beam flew off into the air of it's own accord. We looked at each other for a second before absolutely shitting ourselves when a second beam flew away and the whole house seemed to lurch a little to one side. Now, by this point we were pretty much world experts at monkeying around the naked beams and joists of the house, and though we were sat on the roof with the house in the process of collapsing, we knew how to get down by the quickest means possible. What followed was around thirty seconds of all out action which wouldn't look out of place in an Indiana Jones movie; we scrambled down through the house dodging falling bricks and tiles and large splintering beams suddenly jutting out at us, a tile fell down and smacked me on the back of the head and bunch of bricks fucked Rich's knee, but we made it out just in time as the whole building loudly collapsed in on itself in a billowing cloud of dust and debris. We literally came within seconds of death, but the excitement, exhilaration and satisfaction of the event overwhelmed us; we sung and danced about in the cloud of dust, cheering and rugby tackling one another like some kind of Rio Ferdinandesque goal celebration; I can honestly say that was perhaps the single most amazing my moment of my life, we'd levelled this house over the summer, fended off the attentions of numerous members of the police force and fire brigade who we'd always been one step ahead of and knocked down this massive house with our bare hands. The next day we got a load of lads from school together and took a load of petrol down to the wreckage, which was basically now just a huge pile of wooden beams and bricks, and we set fire to the whole thing. It was the biggest bonfire I've ever seen and four fire engines were soon screaming to the scene; we all pegged it through the fields on our well known escape routes, all except this nerdy kid Greg who had an asthma attack and got caught by one of the fire crews. He got expelled from school and is now in prison for breaking a bouncer's neck outside a nightclub. Fucking knocked down a tree Childs play. |

You're only jealous, popper. What started out as a simple act of mindless vandalism grew into a rather sophisticated project of structural engineering undertaken by three kids with zero regard for health and safety. The above description doesn't even begin to describe the immense proportion of what we achieved that summer.
