Was cycling out to my parents tonight...

Was in a queue of traffic at the junction near their house, and whizzed up to the front...
Toot toot! From a car.
Me: ignores it
Toot toot!
Me: ignores again
Toot toot toot!
Me: Middle finger up (pointing behind me), without looking behind. I was off to my annoying parents, and I knew I'd not done anything wrong...
Toot x 10
I turn around to offer some verbal "commentary"... And had to say
"Oh! Hello mum!"

:oops: :oops: :oops:

Think I would have got more into trouble if I wasn't buying them dinner soon after. :lol::lol:


NB I am thirty-ish and yes, it was a nice tea :P

    My boss has a new black porsche. :evil: I would have broken a light or two before I 'noticed' it was my boss...

    Reminds me of my old Head teacher's story of a road rage incident he had with some guy on the way to his viva (sp?) for his finals at Uni.

    Yes, the man was his examiner.......
    Emerging from under a big black cloud. All help welcome

    this is an issue i urgently need to address

    anyone who toots their horn at me usually gets the finger 8)

    one day its going to be someone very important in my working life who has a massive influence over my career and will be with his wife and kids and will say to them 'oh look theres doog he;s a good lad ....toot' and gets the finger in return :oops:

    its simply a matter of time

    The problem is the finger window is very narrow, when the motorist is still behind you can guarantee its worth your effort....if they toot and overtake you cant guarantee they willl see the gesture...and they will be one up and... we cant have that now can we?

    I think i need therapy
