By the time Mrs. Paduska's boy comes back from the newsagent he's finished his Smarties and always throws the empty tube into my front garden. Without the top with the letter on, he's collecting those. I've said I'll clip his ear but he warns that you get three months for that- How long do you get for a Chinese burn?

If you have no previous, you would probably get a caution for common assault. However, you don't really want to go down that road;
Tell Mrs P to STOP her son doing this - if not:
Save all the empty smartie tubes and when you have a good pile, go and throw them in Mrs P's garden.
You cannot get done for littering from public to private - see how they like it.

Accept life is unjust, and stop worrying. When you find the Smarties packet just calmly put it in the bin as you pass. I think the lad will find someone else to wind up after a few weeks.
Any other course of action is likely to give the lad satisfaction and he will carry on. Or, it will get you into big trouble. Good luck.

You need to work on the brat's brain. You need to make him understand that your garden is insured by the Mafia. Tell him that he is rapidly approaching the empty-Smarties-tube-discarding-whack-limit: the point reached after a defined number of discraded tubes when a gangsta is sent round with instructions to eliminate the Smarties-tube-thrower with extreme prejudice!

Save all the empty smarties tubes and post them through his letter box, with a note explaining that you are returning them as you think he must have dropped them in your garden by mistake. He can then explain to his mother what hes done.
If he keeps doing it after that... hunt him down like a dog.

I would collect them each time he does it and write 'i believe you dropped this' and put them through his letter box. If you do it politely they cant complain and i cant see you getting into trouble. When his mum gets to he point of not being able to open her door due to the pile of smartie tubes she'll stop him.

Get you hose pipe set up in a way that you can get to it quickly.
When he throws the tube, run over, switch on the tap and squirt the fecker.
Tell him next time you'll use hot water.
Watch him run !

Tell his mother. And tell him this is Britain, U get 8 months for littering (longer prison sentence as the crime gets less, as Blair always wanted).

Just have a word with his mother and tell her you dint want to keep on picking his rubbish up out of your garden. Or when he does throw it in there just go out and say excuse me you seem to have dropped something and you know there is a fine of up to £1000 for littering and you dint want him or his mum to get in trouble, and keep doing it until he stops. I hate kids and parents like that, mine leave there rubbish in their pockets until they get to a rubbish bin.

Dependant upon his age he'll be fined. Littering is an offence, if he's under the age of criminal responsibility, his parents will be fined. Just catch it on a camcorder.
