From the text:

For a laugh....

“Smash it up, chase people round, take what we like, burn things down. It’s all a good laugh.”

To practice their skills.....

“We got to practice our skills somehow, don’t we? Case we ever need to defend ourselves. Otherwise we’d get rusty. Plus there’s rules. We ain’t allowed to kill anybody. Just scare ’em up a bit, like. And if someone does get hurt, well, they’re back right as rain the next day and don’t remember nothing about it.”
