Rage.
I'm afraid I got to the end of the day, then realised the only photos I'd taken were the ones I took in preperation for a confrontation.
I've walked along this stretch of road for nearly 50 years. It's become a bit of a 'Ran run' in the past few years. So, today I was walking along, as I am always, very aware of the dangers. As one car passed me, another was coming over the bridge (probably too fast) a very slight need to break and swerve of the two cars. The car coming towards me (the one coming over the bridge) had the window down, and the man driving shouted in a most aggressive way, and very loudly "@!!** Off the road!' I was dumbfounded, angry too as there are clear signs alerting to pedestrians walking along this stretch of road. I will not be intimidated by these bullies, but although my head tells me that, I admit, my heart was beating fast.
I didn't know if he was going to swing round and have another go at me, so I took the picture of the sign in preparation. Do these Bullying Men not appreciate how frightening they sound when their voices are raised in such anger? Horrible, horrible man. You can see from the pictures, there is no space to keep off the road.
I've not told my family about this as I don't want them worrying about me, or telling me to change my lifestyle because of the occasional Bully Boy out there. Maybe I will need to remember to carry my spray paint container in future!
