The enviro nutters are everywhere.......

Currently at download festival sat next to my tent with a can of strongbow

Ive got the engine of my Mustang GT running, as charging a battery pack for my iPhone.

One of the Stewards/security girls came over and asked why ive got the engine running, to which i replied im charging a battery pack.

She replied with “that is an incredibly un environmentally friendly way of charging a battery”

And walked off shaking her head

I think i genuinely annoyed her, but she didn't ask me to turn the engine off.

Your USB socket isn't powered with the ignition on and the engine not running then?

Also, she's probably a lesbian.

[Pit Pony]

What is it 0.5 gallon an hour? So £3 to charge it?

[RobDickinson]

Your car battery is prob around 45ah your iphone pack is probably 1/20th the size at most, you are stupid.

If i have ignition the silly day time running lights come on, and dont wantto drain the battery

[Paul_M3]

She’s got a point. You don’t need the engine running to do that. (Unless your phone battery pack is actually the size of a car battery)

Friend with a recovery truck used to make good money jump starting cars on the last days of festivals from people charging things all weekend and find their car wouldn't start when they came to go home.

Was she fit?

[sparks_E46]

Nice car! You can’t spell environmentalists without the word mental. Should have told her to fk off and mind her own business.

Lentil flicker.

Running a V8 to charge a phone?

And you’re saying she’s the nutter?

How are you next to your tent and your car? When I went to Download we were about a four hour walk from the car park!

Does the key not have an Auxiliary position for situations like this?

[Engelberger]

She isn't the nutter in the story.

Selfish people doing stupid things will always try and justify their anti social behaviour.

RIP camping

You get to park in the campsite, which is a 10 min walk friim the arena.

[Donbot]

It would have been more amusing to do it in the 'eco camping' area.

[Douglas Quaid]

You don’t need to run the car to charge the battery. You are being a bit of a numbnut there.

[irocfan]

all the people calling the OP a numbnut need to consider that his Mustang GT may well be an older car and as such he may not be being stupid....

I think I’d be a pissed off as well.

If he's boozing with the car running could he be done for drunk in charge??
