Psychologically Outflanked...

Last night we had a persistant snow ball window thrower. Quite possibly the same persons that toppled our snowman although they denied it. While the front room curtain remained closed, every few minutes the thud of a snowball hitting the window rang out.

Opening the curtain during dinner helped the situation and it was funny watching them trying to innocently walk along the road casing the job.

I managed to stop them by psychologically outflanking them. When they were doing one of their passes, I gestured them to come up to the window. They did after a few minutes and we had a wee chat about my children and the fact that a 4 by 3 foot window really was too big to be a decent target.

After that, there was no more bombing.
