SNOT!!
salad. Yuck!!!
Phone calls at 7.30am on a Monday morning from my sister asking my to take her to work cos she overslept and won't get a parking space.
Lack of sleep last night, moon to bright and niggling pain kept me awake.
Those phone calls that come up as 'unavailable' or 'with held' and it's a recorded message.
On my journey to work this morning there was one guy who kept on clearing his nose by snorting phelgm back into his throat. Thankfully for everyone here I can't give an example as you can't hear me but it's such a disgusting noise. Every 30 seconds or so he was doing that and it was annoying the whole carriage.
Washing up
Don't know if this is the right thread to post this but aggressive drivers is something I'd like to banish.
Today when I went on a bike ride I was about to turn left and a cyclist in front of me got cut up by a car who then proceeded to tell her to watch where she was going. I didn't actually see the incident but as the cyclist was about to keep going the driver caught up with her and shouted at her for saying something rude to him when he had two young kids in the car.
He stopped at least 3 other times to shout at her while she was saying the he cut her up and thought she was going to crash. It was at that point that I said to him 'don't be a dick, just drive on' as there could have been traffic building up behind him. He then proceeded to shout at me and I said to stop it as I saw what happened (even though I didn't). He then started stopping when level with me and said angrily 'ok tell me what you saw' to which I just replied 'no'. He then just drove off into the distance.
Ok the other cyclist shouldn't have sworn under her breath but the way that guy got aggressive with her was not on at all and she said thank you to me afterwards and that her husband told her before she went on the ride to be careful of the conditions as it was wet and slippery. She probably didn't bank on this happening. I didn't think much about it afterwards when we chatted briefly but I was quite pleased that I made her feel better and possibly stopped it getting worse.
That driver was a complete hypocrite and very unpleasant especially with two young kids in the back who witnessed all this, how is that setting an example?
Well done for standing up for her. It was the thought of encountering jerks like him that made me worried about starting cycling again, especially making turnings at junctions. These drivers get so angry because they might be two minutes late when someone gets in their way, but the difference is that a cyclist could be seriously injured or killed.
Well done Alex!
People who talk during the 2 minute silence. It's 2 minutes, show some respect!
