Sexist Pigs?

These are the same people who park on double yellow lines to use a cash point machine when there are empty parking bays 2 or 3 car lengths away -

and the same people who park on pavements, and then moan like fek about cyclists on pavements

(pavements are for pedestrians, nobody else)

Some of them complain about cyclists NOT on pavements!
I refuse to walk in the road to get past cars or vans. If I happen to be carrying a bag with sharp corners as I squeeze through the narrow gap between vehicle and hedge, and if the corners just happen to scratch the vehicle........

When I was younger and a bit of a reb I got stopped 9 times for speeding and never booked. The last time was by two police cars as they'd called for backup as I was in a capri and the following car was an old escort so they brought down a rover in the opposite direction. One of the officers recognised me from a previous speeding "offence" thought my number was up but they got an emergency call, so they told me slow down and off they went. I'm more law abiding nowadays

Seeing as you're allowed to use the mother and baby spaces when you're preggers then I don't see how they can clamp people without a child seat. In addition, if you've got a newly hatched one then it'll be in one of those carry seats which wouldn't be in the car when you were in the shop as the baby would be sat in it in the trolley so it's a totally unworkable ruling. Take your point that the guys you saw shouldn't be parked in them but then again most of my friends with kids prefer to park well away from the doors in a quieter part of the car park where there are less cars about. Having a kid doesn't mean that you can't walk across, just means you probably need more space to get everything out the car.

Back to the original theme of the post, yes, sometimes you get let off stuff / served quickly in pubs etc etc but this is balanced out by being patronised and ripped off whenever anybody is trying to talk technical stuff to you despite the fact that it's just possible that you do know what you're talking about!

with handcuffs and a huge truncheon

I May get moderated for this

There was a young policeman from Clapham Junction
Who's organ just wouldn't function
For years to her strife
He deceived his poor wife
With snot on the end of his truncheon

I get a hard time here being a girl....
It took ages to find a builders merchant who would pay any attention (we have an account now with a fab place) and I get alsorts of remarks when people pass me when I'm up the scaffolding. One chap recently, at a village 'do', asked how the work was going- saying to Mr T that it must be hard doing everything alone, when husband pointed out that he wasn't quite alone, the chap said 'ahh yes, it's good to have a meal waiting at the end of the day'!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

On the plus side I was once let off by a policeman when I skipped a red light.
