    The one gent walked straight at me. I stopped rather than step out into the crowd move past me. The Gent said 'Excuse me' I said sure. I'll happily wait here.

    The bucket full of bile was heard for a fair while from the gent as he finally took a step to the left away from the wall I was up against
    A while ago in a shopping aisle I came across a woman, her shopping trolley and child completely blocking my path, they didn't notice or acknowledge my presence, I was so cross that instead of my usual apologetic sorry or excuse me I said, "Do you mind?".

    Well done to you ND, as hopefully you will have taught his kids a life lesson that he has obviously neglected.

    What gets me is the group of usually females that decides to have a mothers meeting right in the middle of the main walkway in a shopping center.
    Not off to one side,right in the middle, so people struggle to get pass.

    Didn't invite me!

    I loathe being in most shopping centres. I do struggle to maintain the standard of decorum which was expected of me, by my elders.
    My wife seems to have a sixth sense on when things are wearing a bit thin with me and ably assumes the 'Elder' role.

    My therapist says I have a preoccupation with vengeance. I told her 'We’ll see about that!'.

    Roll on winter, so I can complain about the cold.
    This high nineties humidity is knocking the old bloke around.
