Bora's are beginning to plague the streets around where i live too so i am quite against this look

Truffle Unregistered T	Is that not a photoshop? If it isnt then quite simply WOW! Thats hilarious, Barryboys shed of the week? Looks like it's been painted on with a brush and whoever has done it has missed the front lip of the bonnet for starters. Then there's the complete lack of any straight lines, the right hand corner of the roof is of particular delight. This thread should be renamed "Someone vandalised my coop!"
