I used to make furniture fo a living, before I realised that you can't raise a family on the proceeds.

At the time I worked out of an old court house that I rented off the council. I had just finished a hardwood coffee table complete with carving in the top. I had oiled it and left it in the back room, an old holding cell with high windows. Hearing a smashing of glass I went to see what had happened. A rock had been thrown through the window and landed right on the table leaving a deep scar in the top.

I ran around the back to find the next door kid with a second rock in his hand, and about to launch the missile. I grabbed him by the collar and frogmarched him in to his father. The remark... "My (*****name deleted to protect the guilty) would never do such a thing."

fortunately I was able to enlarge the carving to incorporate the dent from the rock. An extra few hours work though and, much resentment at the next door prick of a kid. He grew up to be a prick of an adult too.
