Car's been hit :(

Put a one inch crack all the way down our back wall by hitting it with a mini JCB
Damaged the top of the side wall and cracked it by hitting it with a dumper
Completely ruined the whole driveway which appears to have now started subsiding under the weight of the full sized JCB they kept driving up and down it.
Put a 6 inch hole in the house wall where they attempted to remove a piece of metal which held the washing line up.
Scraped off most of the plaster in the alleyway with their dumper.
Dug two huge patches of concrete out of the shared alleyway concrete, overshot but about a foot though and dug up portions of our drive.
Ripped the gate to the alleyway off and dumped it in a neighbours garden.
Broken our back gate, presumably with their skillful driving again.

WTF?

Do you live in a episode of the Chuckle Brothers?

Surprisingly the damage to my house and the hassle we've had is nothing compared to the neighbour on the other side, they dug through the water pipe 3 times leaving her without water for >24 hours each time, the JCB they killed my drive and car with was driven into her bricked shed. While she was in said shed getting some bits and bobs she looked up and saw a builder poking his head through a hole in the wall he'd accidently knocked through, they tried to drive a full sized dumper truck along the pathway in front of her house and knocked down the the fences on both sides and her 2 year old niece was out in the garden playing and one of the slates they'd put up next door fell, narrowly missing the child (don't ask me how that worked, maybe it rebounded off the fence or something but still).

Then, quite out of the blue, they knocked on her door and asked her if they could remove the fence all the way along her front garden (the front garden is fenced off lawn, very big) so they could store their vehicles overnight ... she's a very religious woman and I reckon that was the first time in her life she's ever told somebody to **** off.

Up around Belmont way, though we've had enough of the place now and my wife wants to shift out to somewhere slightly quieter, probably Eglinton now house prices are coming down.
