Costume drama to thwart dog poo lobbers

-

SOMETIMES, when you have a problem you have to think outside the box.

Clearly those idiots lobbing dog poo into gardens around Poynton are not going to desist because the local plod says they should.

In fact, the notoriety and publicity they have gained may encourage them all the more.

Remember ASBOS? They became a badge of honour among the yob fraternity.

Clearly the Lobbers have an entirely different perspectiv­e than the Lobees on this newly found source of entertainm­ent. To them flinging dog poo into someone’s garden is just a huge joke and the huffing and puffing of the constabula­ry just adds to the merriment.

For the residents finding their homes and gardens littered with dog-do is an awfully upsetting experience. Fear not…I have the answer.

Come closer to your newspaper we don’t want to share this with the world.

Surprise is needed here.

Remember when Winston Churchill had thousands of tanks and armoured vehicles made out of wood to fool Hitler into believing the D-Day landings were elsewhere? Listen-up…this is what I want the victims of this foul practice to do.

Make, borrow or buy dog outfits. Not for your dog… but for you. You can get them at the Spider’s Web on Chestergat­e or on Amazon.

Slip on your dog costumes and hide behind you hedges and fences as the Lobbers approach.

Have someone in your street play “Who let the dogs out,” full blast on outdoor speakers and as soon as they lob the dog-do scoop it up with hand shovel and let them have it straight back. Get a few good/videos photos as they retreat and post them on social media.

I’m willing to bet you won’t see them again. what’s
