Pavements covered by cyclists. Call me old-fashioned, but I'd like pavements covered by pedestrians, wouldn't you?
They are nearly as bad as folks in motorised wheelchairs doing wheelies and other stunts. Granny Postelthwaite at number 6 was world freestyle champion.
Granny Postelthwaite would have to win her title on a designated area. The public pavement is not designated for her to practice on. Ban her. How would she get about otherwise? - I'd concern myself with that as much as she concerned herself with pedestrians. Same goes with cyclists.
Have you had an altercation while a cyclist recently? Did one do a ride pass snatch and grab and made of with your Waitrose crab and watercress sarnies?
No, neither. If a cyclist came near me on the pavement, I'd simply kick the bike wheel from under him. As i said, they know what they're doing. I owe them no more consideration than they chose to give me.
Having already said "the wife", can I also add "the kids". Why do they seem to want to live in a total pigsty? I don't get it. Mine have both got more cupboards in their rooms than I have, but still only use the "floordrobe". How hard is it to grasp the concept of putting clean clothes in a cupboard and dirty clothes in the wash basket? Son's room: Daughter's room: and apparently I'm "officially the worst father in the world" for threatening to post those photos on Facebook.
My wife is the opposite. One sock left on the floor by accident and I'll get chased out of the country by an axe welding psychopathic 5'2" Angrybitch.
I blame the parents, and the mothers in particular All that they need to do is to 'bring them up' properly . . . . useless tarts
Referee's and linesmen who are not up to the job and are better suited as pub teams standard, there are far too many now to say the odd one has slipped through the system. Going to away matches and being stuck in traffic missing the start of the game and after the match being made to stay behind and still meet traffic jams on the way home.

Obviously after the threat of its not in the washing basket its in the bin. All her washing got done and the clean clothes put away, then the dirty stuff, knickers and all would be then hung up on the floor awaiting the next sat blitz. I told her to wait and see what its like when you have kids.........and sure enough some 20 years later she now knows what its like
Cyclists wouldn't feel the need to go on pavements if a large percentage of motorists knew how to drive in the vicinity of cyclists..
