do you ever feel guilty overtaking?
Discussion
Have you ever tried to overtake a buggy or pushchair, or even worse a double buggy, or worse two mum's with buggies -aaaaaargh!!
Then there's the g*t who leaves their supermarket trolley at a strategic point -nobody, but nobody wants to push it out of the way.......
Help!
Tell ya wot though, it's even more sporting walking a large dog, prone to licking
(at head height of most toddlers and hand height of adults) thru a crowd of pedestrians..... 
And ocean, don't panic -you're definitely not the only one....

This threads ace... 
On the subject of pushchairs and ever so slightly off topic...
Does anyone else experience Pavement numptys about to cross the road, shove their baby buggy complete with in car person into the road? so they can get a better view..? and to signal they want to cross by sacrificing their first born?
Scares the bejesus out of me... That and Michael Flatley

Just remembered another irritating type of pavement numpty - the 'person with loads of shopping bags'. You know the type, because you can tell from a mile off they don't have a car, so they do their weekly shop on the high street, then waddle towards the bus stop with 3 or 4 bags in each hand, crashing them into your knees as they pass.
They always wear manky beige coats, and have a sour, hard-done-by expression on their faces.

No.
Currently, the novelty represented by the sound of several hundred immaculately bred Bavarian nags exhaling several thousand revolutions per minute is more than sufficient to divert my attentions away from any such notions.
Worried, yes because if I carry on at this rate, I will be in clink by Chrimbo.
And I blame the Dark Lord Scoobyzoom!

I can't take much more of this thread, my sides hurt and I'm getting a headache from laughing so much. I am picturing all you loons having a race through the Trafford Centre with full actions and car noises
Same here, however I've imagined that the noises they're making are the ones that go with the picture of the F1 Car. (The one that has been posted a millions times in the last few days. It's here if you've missed it) Quality thread BTW !
I know the feeling of slow numpty walkers - I Represented Middlesex at racewalking in my youth..
Here's a tip for you all - if having trouble getting through call out of these phrases:
Wet paint - coming through
Mind the dog
They usually work. Even succesfully tested at a fireworks display
- no one even questioned wet paint in the dark!..

I think we should have a "people as cars" race at the next Pistonfest, Im pretty confident about my chances.
dunno, so long as I don't have my racing slicks on I would be a fair contender...
There was a time at the karting club where we turned up for a race (at Tockwith), and the Karts weren't ready, so we ran a race round the track.
Useful, though - you could find out where the potholes were and use them to your advantage in the real race!
