shopkeeps against pleasantness

Regrettably, a concerned local resident (upon finding a number of particularly voluble bees demanding his attention) has set about demonising what was a perfectly civilised consultation on a number of misconceived premises. He may even have been the particularly vexed person I was trying not to glower/giggle/smirk at at the drop-in, who was espousing similar selfish illogical opinionation into the faces of what must have seemed to him to be maddeningly calm Sustrans and council representatives.
