"TUESDAY 10TH SEPTEMBER - ASHFORD VALLEY TICKHAM HUNT SUPPORTER ATTACKS OUR VEHICLE WITH HAMMER
Today we were reminded just how desperate the Ashford Valley Tickham hunt really are to avoid us, to illegally hunt and to kill foxes.
We began the day successfully following their hound van towards Bethersden. We noticed that huntsman Neil Staines was driving particularly slowly and was on the phone. At this point we suspected he might be calling some of his cronies to do the traditional 'block in'. This is where a huntsman is so desperate for sabs not to follow them to their meet that they beg one of their associates to illegally drive in front of our vehicle and literally use their vehicle by any means possible to stop us following the hound van so it can get away from us.
Our suspicions were correct and as we were driving along the A28 towards Ashford all of a sudden what can only be described as a pre-pubescent chav flung their battered VW golf sporting a dazzling yellow 'space saver' between us and a member of the publics van in front. How a serious road traffic accident didn't occur we are unsure. The young chav almost went head on into oncoming traffic.
What then ensued as we continued now towards Bissenden would actually be comical if it wasn't dangerous. The young chav then decided to do his best attempt at drawing 'S' shapes in the road pushing his creaking golf to its limits so we couldn't get passed. As we saw the hound van disappear into the distance, we decided to turn around and try and search for where the hunts meet could be.
We thought we had left the young chav behind but before we knew it minutes later he was on our tail! Driving up to our rear bumper in a ramming fashion then slowing down. This went on for almost 10 minutes so we decided to stop to see if we could get a better look at him. It wasn't a pretty sight. The young chav looked desperate for nourishment. His meagre friend was sitting there in the passenger seat with a balaclava that looked like he stole it from from his mum's fancy dress box.
We got good pics of them and were about to drive off before they decided to drive up to our car and start hitting it violently with a hammer! In doing so they smashed our rear windscreen and did other exterior damage. They then sped off like cowards into the distance.
Undeterred we continued on our way to find the hunt - albeit unsuccessfully!
Reflecting on today we are reminded of how desperate the Ashford Valley Tickham hunt are to kill and how they are losing the war against us. Only a truly, truly stupid organisation would encourage such recklessness! We got the whole incident on film which has been passed to the Police who are already taking statements. It was an utterly desperate act from a desperate hunt. A desperate hunt that are already struggling to survive by begging for new supporters and a desperate hunt that has already appeared in court once this year with a member convicted of violence.
One thing for sure is despite these acts of violence our conviction remains the same. These acts do nothing but spur us on.
Of course we will update you on how the police investigations go.

That photo is hilarious. Youve got the passenger covering his boat cos of course we all recognise him he is famous afterall and the driver in the baseball cap (very "street") who either got no legs or is 4ft nothing.......boys go get a hobby or a girlfriend stop driving round aimlessly looking for people who youve visualled before and thought you could work your intimation magic on....but would give Mike Tyson a wide berth and behave yourselves then.
this retard ran over my pet dog on his dumpster truck, what a total wanker
