My neighbour. Knob.

Cement mixer running at 7.00am this morning. My other neighbour ask why & he was told, simply, my garden so I’ll do what I want so why don’t you fk off & die!!!

This is the same cretin who, when I suffered a stroke 3 years ago, told me when I got home that he was hoping that I would only leave hospital in a wooden box!

And all because I reported him for having a caravan on his front garden, against the terms of the land covenant, & for extending his garden beyond his boundary (blocking off a public & vehicular right of way) so that he could get his caravan onto his front.

So Mr ********** you are a knob.
I was going to post about my neighbour but he sounds like the salt of the earth compared to yours.

My neighbour - too tight to pay the £35per year Council fee for garden waste and too lazy to take it to the Tip, decides to set fire to it in his back garden yesterday . Cue huge streams of acrid smoke billowing across our garden and seeping into the house. He's done it before but this time somebody must have reported him to the Fire Brigade who turned up and had "words".

No doubt the caravan has some hideous name relating to speed to make it sound dynamic and exciting like ‘Rapide’

I nominate people who sign off on the names of caravans and Motorhomes

Yes. We need names like 'Creep', 'Crawler', 'Slowcoach' and 'Glacial'.

I’m not bashing cyclists, I just encountered one that was a knob.

I was waiting for a safe spot to overtake a cyclist passing approaching parked cars, I wait and as we’re passing the cars one of them starts pulling out into the side of me, i bip (tiny warning beep) the horn, the car stops and all is well. Until the cyclist turns round starts giving it hard with middle fingers and wker signs. I point at the car that is stopped at a jaunty angle to try and show that the beep wasn’t at her but she wouldn’t have it and carried on with the obscene gestures. I can understand why she might have thought I’d beeped her but no need to be obscene.

This annoyed me really, thinking the world revolved around her. Further up the road after I decided not to get too annoyed and passed safely the lights turned red. I opened my window to see if she’d stop for a chat and I’d explain the world doesn’t revolve around her and I didn’t beep at her but she didn’t, she just went through the red light.

He sounds like a right bean.

I’m surpised, he is still walking unaided.

I'm going to take a guess at clumsy humour: black pudding is made from blood, therefore if Jake Smith's blood "literally" boiled, he'd end up looking like said tasty comestible.

That was my take, that and an attemot to poke fun at my dislike of the overuse of the word literally. I'm sure Jake's blood never boils, he seems so calm and well balanced. Fair play though, first if his posts I've read that don't mention communism/Marxism/Corbyn....


....c'mon Jake your letting the side down.... smile

Knob: Councillor Nick Childs.

"White people are 'inevitably racist,' " Labour councillor says:

This is surely illegal?

Bit like saying . . . (think "travellers").

I am rather hoping you then DID give her a blast of the horn!

Does that make me a bad man? Never mind! smile

I nominate the moron at Tesco fuel pumps this morning. Fills his car goes in to pay, the usual extra long wait that I’m used to now while people do their big shop in the kiosk. He finally returns with all kinds of stuff. Next thing the bonnet opens and the guy starts checking and filling all his fluids, little cone in the oil filler topping it up a bit then checking the dipstick, little bit more. At the pump. Wtf.

It was tempting I admit, but I managed not to. I could feel road rage building but decided I didn’t want to start anything. Although I wanted her to stop by my window at the red light so I could explain the world doesn’t revolve around her, but alas, she didn’t stop.
