Do they have video?

They have absolutely nothing.

So...how do they know who did it?

They know my dad, and his is the closest unit. That's it.

So, they have nothing other than speculation. Good luck with that.

Be careful that your response/defense does not indirectly admit anything - i.e. work. They may want to suggest that your father is repsonsible for the cost of re-digging the hole and perhaps a fine from the HOA if that is in their agreement.

Deny, deny, deny. Suggest nature did it.

@Mik > Deny, deny, deny. Suggest nature did it.

"What hole?"

Nature abhors a vacuum...

Well, your dad could also say that he used the hole as he thought it was intended, and after using it, he couldn't find any way to flush, so he filled it in with dirt.

Right, definitely keeping an eye on that.

Well, as long as you never ever admit nor imply that Dad actually DID anything regarding the hole, you could drag them down the road for several letters then , “Oh, wait.. you think HE did this? Oh, no...not even.”.

[Mik]

But It’s probably better just to say you have no idea what they are talking about and forget it.

I love this. All of it. As I’ve said many times, I’ve never met someone as dedicated to spite as Aqua.

@Aqua-Letifer to add to your armory, please also start including puns. For example, somewhere in your next letter say “if you want to keep digging yourself a deeper hole...” at some point.

Oh my God yes the pun game.

My dad's reluctant to commit very much in the way of effort to this, but my mom agreed to mail out anything I give them. And I give it a good 80 percent chance they get a reply back—the president is the kinda guy who wants to win!! So, the next one is going to be full of "evidence" in the form of attachments, which will include:

• a photo of the HOA office, captioned with its title and address.
• a picture of the hole. Or any hole, really, I don't care.
• a picture of a "worker." Like, a landscaping guy stock photo. Preferably of a dude smiling with a shovel.
• another stock photo of a guy signing a contract to illustrate what signing a contract looks like.
• a mugshot of my dad that I have for some reason after he renewed his soccer referee certification.

Hahahahaha

BTW...how did they know it was your dad that filled in the hole?

They don't, unless there was some witness. They just assume.

I'd ask for proof, including any surveillance video of the common areas.
