For anyone getting car punctures up the cathkin braes last few months from screws spread out on the parking spaces (seems to be targeting the parking spaces across from golf club). Here is who is responsible. Caught him today. Cleared parking spaces of screws then watched, seem him
appearing round a car looking suspicious. Went over to that car after he left and found 3 screws. I've been narrowimg it down to who was doing it as police scotland not looking into it.

Video also available of him saying he was only looking for screws. Lying C***.

Hello. Mountain Biker here.

I would do laps of Cathkin Braes MTB course a few years ago. Those woods behind the guy in the picture (layby across from golf) were a very interesting spot. While riding the trail I would disturb lone men walking through the trees looking very flustered and surprised at my presence. It was a place on the trail where I liked to pass through asap. The men would park in the layby.

I have a feeling the person with the screws has a problem with what the people who park in that layby and disappear into the woods are doing.

Always have a chuckle when I ride past some random middle age man just loitering in that part of the woods😂

u/Muerteabanquineros 4h ago

They aren’t loitering they’re clearly looking for a screw like OP

Do they not know about the Pipeworks?

u/Cielo11 5h ago

Yeah. It was insane how often you'd find random men in there acting like they were inspecting trees.

u/No-Tone-6853 3h ago

They were inspecting wood but It certainly wasn’t any trees

"He was only looking for screws".

In a car park? Unless it's the other screws that Cathkin Braes is infamous for, there are better options.

Fucking state of that. Well in.

Someone up there putting out poison trying to harm (and has harmed) dogs as well, apparently.

Weird behaviour. Someone has been leaving poison out for years at the cathkin braes too, a few dogs have been poisoned.

A guy can't forage for screws?

u/No_Piece_6077 5h ago

Good work on catching the cunt. Did you get his licence?

2

u/Accurate-Donkey5789 2h ago

I don't think they give a licence to screw

u/bps706 5h ago

Why would OP ask for his driving licence?

10

u/Forever__Young 4h ago

Think he means his registration plate, which is known in America as a licence plate.

A lot of younger people in Scotland have picked it up as slang.

u/ParaGulls 4h ago

Think he means license plate as in car? 😭

Granda from the local tyre replacement service? Or just a horrible old cunt. Can't decide.

It's the sharp bit at the end of the screw.

It's always handy to have some 'tech' screws in your toolbox.
