Never made a joke about anyone who died? You got offended at that one because it was aimed at something you are into. If you can't see that it was extremly tougue in cheek and that I was trying to disfuse what was rapidly turning into a arguement with the rest of the post then thats your problem to be honest. Once again, it must be tough to be perfect, well done, you must sleep soundly at night in your bubble of selfrightiousness.

I don't get this as its so much harder to squeze past the car rather than step a yard onto the road. Obiously you wouldn't do this on a dual carrage way but on a normal estate road i think pedestrains like you are just petty. Some times peolpe have to park on pavements to let buses past even though tecnicaly its not "legal".
There is an OAP who lives over the road from me and she moans at her next door neighbour for parking his van half on half off the pavment infornt of a shared gate. He only parks it there because where his house is a bus cant get past if he parks it right infront of his house. The oap does not realise that the only place he can park without blocking the bus is right out side her house and he could park the van right infront of her window if its fully on the road cause he pays road tax.
Most old people are great and like most middle aged people but as with all groups of people you get idiots
Too every one moaning that i was Blocking the Path!... Let me stress again!... with a few more details...
The Path is 6 feet wide, Drop Kerb to allow me to park my car behind my gates!, I was probly only taking up 2 feet of this pavement (leaving 4 feet behind the car and in front of the gates!)...
The Car was there for 2 minutes max, Engine running, Wife in the passenger seat, ready to pull away!...
The Old Codger (Gollum Lokalikee) came round the corner, Pushing his bike (though the missus says it was a she! ), Handle bars laden with Tesco shopping bags...
Virtually opposite my gates on the other side of the road is an alleyway that said cronie was heading for!, I was not blocking this at all!, It was 5.5 metres away over the other side of the road!!... So He/She/It had to walk in the road anyway!...
A Mother pushing a Double buggy managed to push her buggy behind the car with no problems before Gollum came round the corner!, If she (and her sprogs) were still in earshot I'd have not been so much a potty mouth!..
This has been a public service announcement for more clarity!
When I get to be an Old person can somebody Shoot me before I get like them!!
Erm... Thanks (I think!?!..)

You're being incredibly childish in this thread, and while I don't necessarily agree with the course of action Squiffy might take if obstructed, your attitude in no way helps your argument.nomad said:Never made a joke about anyone who died?

Some people can't help themself at having a winge. It is like those residential parking permits etc. You can park up for 5 minutes to post something in someones letterbox and guarantee someone is give you the evils for parking there.
To be fair mate, I live in an area which is very hard for parking and it annoys the hell out of me when people who don't live here park in permit holder spots because I end up parking 5 minutes away and having to lug all my shopping back, i am never one for moaning but this does really annoy me.
As for the topic, as others have said, some people just look for things to moan about like that
