Builders, well the ones doing next doors ridiculously huge extension that has been dragging on for months, they think they are on a building site, hey arrive at the crack of dawn and you can hear them noisily hocking up and gobbing, then they have a loud chat with loads of effing and blinding and there is one that has epicly long and aggressive mobile phone conversations with his girlfriend.
Just heard, "Wheres this f
k Chippy"
"How the fk should I know"
Returns 15 mins later and parks halfway across our drive.
Nothing against builders but is it part of the creed to be generally uncouth at all times ?

We have exactly the same scenario.
What started as a polite conversation with our neighbour a year ago about a possible extension they were planning now regularly turns into raging arguments.
Just sick to the tits of builders, we had a week or two of them doing our underpinning, nice chaps but its the mess, the racket and general agro that grates.
Of to Atlanta in the morning for a week so will be builder free !

To my mind, the bailiffs committed the first assault.
It was my understanding that they are required to contact the police for assistance when legal entry is being denied. There seem to be a lot of these videos on youtube, and I watched a similar clip in which the bailiffs were forced to leave by the police, as their documentation wasn't in order.
According to Citizens Advice;
Reasonable force doesn't include the following, because they are all ways in which the bailiff isn't allowed to enter your home or premises:
pushing you or anyone else out of the way
getting in through an open window
breaking a window to get in
taking up floorboards to access part of your property
climbing over a fence or wall.
I saw at least three infractions and several common assaults on that basis.
Why would anyone (meaning the bailiffs) take such risks, especially when being filmed?
It's someone else's money, why risk a beating or jail time for it?
I'm as bloody minded and self-righteous as the next guy, but I would stand back and wait for the police to do their job.

The same is with Japanese trains, very quite and clean. It does raise an important point, is the term council exclusively UK or can you have council Japanese / Korean / etc.
I'm in France at the moment and it exists here. Lots of it. Europa1 said:

Just because a manufacturer calls it a Shooting Brake,, doesn't mean it is.
Case in point - the Passat CC.
ITS NOT A f
kING COUPE IF IT HAS 4 DOORS! 
last year I attended my daughters nativity play which is now of course called 'The Holiday Play' after sitting through almost hour of where she had a 15 second performance.
At the end when we were all clapping the performance a gentleman to my right put his fingers in his mouth and whistled which encouraged others to do the same!
I put forward that as a bit council

Anywhere with multiple traffic calming. speed humps, chicanes, mini roundabouts, 20MPH. Always council.
Yes, the local council, who authorise these exellent deterrents to those who charge through 30mph built up areas and town centres.(That feels better.)
I accept that this post is council for me going off on one.
