Re: pair of trainers thrown over a phone cable ?
 

Surely in good old England this just means 'kids having a laugh', not 'gang-related' ! I have been seeing trainers / other laced shoes slung over wires for at least twenty years.

I live in warrington nearly all my life and i've seen loads of times from when I was at school to present day.
As for the meaning, I think it depends on where you live. Around here it's usually kids having a laugh or bullying, not gang related at all.
I've also seen Bra's, knickers, belts and the odd T.shirt.
At shell Island there was quite a few bra's hanging from one particular tree. I have no idea what that was all about

So if that's what it means, why isn't there a pair of trainers hanging on almost every phone line on my old street.

Oh wait, they probably figured it was easier to do it the other way around :oops:
