You've got to laugh.....

[TheBoyBilly]

There I was bimbling nicely on my commute back from Victoria to St.Pancras having loads of time to enjoy the view etc. I passed along from Tavistock Square and hooked a left into Marchmont St. As I approached the Lord John Russell pub (recommended) an old couple stepped off the kerb and into the road without looking. A quick swerve round them and I was on my way again.
'Those bl***dy cyclists are a menace' says Mr Old 'Un. I was dumbstruck but couldn't help but laugh. It sort of made my day. Imagine if I were an Addison Lee taxi! They'd have been a rather squished pair of old codgers now.

I wonder if there's an age over which suddenly everything that someone does wrong is automatically someone else's fault ...

I believe it's the same age at which one doesn't have to be too concerned at queue jumping at airport check in queues, and just play the "sorry I'm just a confused old biddy" part when challenged.

But you look them in the eyes, and you know that they know exactly what they're up to...

Personally I'm quite looking forward to being of the 'old grumpy git' age area
