i was happily driving back form cricket practice this morning, through east london back to central. one of the cars i passed driving in the opposite direction had a rear seat passenger who decided to lower his window and discard the contents of a syrupy liquid on my car as i passed. unfortunetaly, and regrettably i completely lost it, spun round, caught them and made some humble suggestions along the lines of repetition potentially leading to decapitation.

it ws clearly a stupid thing to do, since im sure i had a lot more to lose than that piece of $hit, however i was wondering whether i was alone in my mental handicap when it comes to gross injustices borne of jealousy and/or delinquency.

does any body know where i can get concealed machine guns fitted behind the side lamps?

I had the same experience a couple of weeks ago driving through a sleepy village following my mate in his Tuscan. Pootling along in a 30 zone doing 30mph, got to a national speed limit sign, we both accelerate away. Friend in front passes a cyclist coming the opposite way, doing no more than 50 (friend not the push biker!), cyclist starts frantically waving at him, I'm following behind about 20 yards, doing about 50 as well and he decides that spitting at me is an appropriate greeting for me.

What a sad, pathetic loser! I hope he spends the rest of his sad pathetic miserable life in a damp decrepit tent 5 miles from the north pole!

I think the problem a lot of people have with our cars is that even if we're only going slow we SOUND like we're totally gunning it, and for some people that's as if we're trying to scare or threaten them. Especially if their mode of transport is a flippin' bike.

If that cyclist spat at me I would've gone back and done the same to him - and believe, right now, with this chest cold I have, he would've come off much worse!

i think my biorhythms have crashed today or my karma is seriously ****ed up or something. after the irritating event this morning, i was the victim of a bit more hatred! no music, no fast driving, just minding my own business near marble arch, and one a of a bunch of teenagers decides to leave a huge chip in the roof by way of a stone or coin or something.

the next time im prepared to go to jail for breaking one of these little b******'s legs. i hope this day ends quickly before something else happens.

In a similar vain, parked up in a pub car park today and guy walks up to car with teenage daughter. She proceeds to drape herself over my car while he takes snaps. Was quite flattered till I saw the scratches her jewellery left on the roof. Do these people not have any respect for other peoples property?
