Yes most likley she married well (money) and hubby is happy to subsidise little wifey's hobby shop, it most likely keeps her out of the way and make her feel important yes

I think he meant to say unforgiveable. His post reads that way, at least.
I did mean forgiveable.
Parking that way isn't deserving of road rage for example, but then neither is filming someone with your own phone.

Through her selfish actions she's closed an entire lane of what looks like quite a busy road. Pretty anti-social if you ask me. His filming would have been inconsequential if she hadn't noticed it, or noticed it and had the decency to feel embarassed / apologetic. The only reason his filming became an issue is because she took umbrage at having her selfishness recorded.

The thing is, to all those saying "she's been excessively badly treated", I always think that people who have the potential to be in the public eye, be it a shop, a signwritten van, whatever, need to think for just those few milliseconds more than Mr(s) Average. For example, don't drive like a twunt/throw rubbish out of your window/etc etc when your vehicle is signwritten with phone numbers, URLs, email addresses. Likewise, if this had been Mrs Housewife, sure she would still have been filmed, and quite possibly IDd by someone, but there would have been much less potential for tracking her place of work, phone number, etc. Not impossible, no, but less likely, and less likely to attract all the Kyleites who are now hitting ringback on their phones in the hope of connecting a call so that they can shout down the phone line at her.

She should have used one or two more brain cells before kicking off.

She did this to herself, that's why she deserves it.

If you don't want people to think you're a massive tt, don't act like a massive tt. And I've have kept filming given the fact that her stupid husband was clearly up for a bit of assault.

I fail to see where the interest is in any of this. Two, then three people have a bit of an argument. And?

I don't get some of you tbh, fair enough she did something stupid and wrong so rightly should get a bit of a bking, but at the end of the day everyone makes mistakes, especially in the heat of the moment it is very easy to get carried away. To many people on PH act like angels behind their keyboards but in real life I bet many would not act in the greatest light if someone annoyed you like that.
The problem here is that there is far too much gloating it seems too many people are happy that her business is suffering because of it and I think this is ridiculous given her relatively minor crime.

You're confusing "making a mistake", with "acting like a complete tt, because you're a complete tt". HTH wink

I fail to see why you would bother to post in a thread that you have no interest in.

Hardly a mistake, by blocking the road the stupid bh clearly thought she was far more important than everyone else, and when challenged about it she threatened to lie to the police in order to get an innocent member of the public in trouble.

Does that justify other people being complete tts in their response? When this was being discussed on the various Bath Twitter feeds (@WeLoveBath and @NOWBath) it was difficult to decide if the original woman was worse than some of the internet vigilantes or not. It's ironic that some people react to someone behaving like a tt by behaving like tts.

I've only just seen this and was also expecting violence to break out, who knows, maybe it did after filming ended?

I think the cameraman probably kept the film rolling as protection for himself, the two cretins may or may not have been willing to get physical, but as much as they hated being filmed, perhaps they were smart enough to realise that if they started attacking the guy on film, they would really be in trouble.

Could you have done what he (filmer) did, and kept so cool? I don't think I could, I'd have probably exploded! biggrin

However, there's gotta be a motto, or something, here to all of us.

Doesn't matter where you are, who you are, your actions today (with the net and social networking) can change your life and the lifestyle you are accustomed to, in a flash.

The old 70s biker ad (still going) could be updated:
'Think once, think twice, THINK before doing ANYTHING!

or the other one 'Think twice, act once!' to 'Think twice... hmm, ...nah.'

Bet the silly bint is now wishing she had.

How does a knitting shop return a good enough profit to drive a nice looking Audi A5?
Ball of wool: £5.00, £2.50 gross margin.

Cost of Audi A5 a month: £500.

So, debt financed by the sale of 8 balls of wool a day.

Roughly.
