Driving and parking near schools.
 
I'm not normally out at "that" time, but this morning I cut through an estate on my way to searching out some new double glazing wedge gasket.

All I can say is: I was appalled. I've seen others complain, and thought not much about it, but OMG, the standard of driving, the impatience, the rudeness, the dangerous and illegal parking, and guess what.....it's 90% WOMEN!
:mad:

What I always find amusing is how aggressive some of these women are, worse than blokes. :lol1:

Yep see it most mornings on the school run, and on the days when my wife does it, I get to hear about it. It is utterly ridiculous. My kids primary school is in a rural location, on a NSL route, the propensity for utter carnage is high.

There are a group of mums who want the speed limit reduced, these are the same group, who will park on the double yellows which protect the minor road junctions, get their kids out onto the road, park on the small pavement, pushing kids and mums with prams onto the road. Selfish, braindead imbeciles, usually driving a vehicle which is much too large / powerful for their driving experience or ability, I've gotten into a standoff with them several times because they are unable to reverse the damn things.

Three fat munters walked out in front of me without a care in the world, forcing me to stop short.:mad:

They thought it was funny and that they were clever.

I hope they get knocked down.

On that note .. and completely none PC .. but have you notice the poor families .. the people "struggling" to get by, living in tiny council houses, with 2 kids, three iphones and the latest pram .. the mothers are always ****ing fat. Fat with fake tan, fake eye brows and a **** you attitude. The blokes are skinny, in tracksuits with a can of larger at 9am ..

How do people who are on the breadline get fat?

We travel 11 miles to school, I park 100-200 yds from the entrance. I have taught my child cross the road to learn how to be safe. When our other children were at a nearby school some parent would drive 500yds from their home, drop kids off in the school carpark and then drive straight back home, 500yds!!

And maybe that's why they are fat?

Following on with the non-PC post :D, how come so mnay supposedly dirt poor folk have so many tats?

pimmo2000 30 November 2017 01:21 PM

Good point.

You can fat on poor quality cheap food from fast food outlets. Unfortunately it's has high calorific value.

Lots of fresh fruit and veg with a smaller amount of carbs and protein.

It's taken me quite a long time to realise this. Plus lots of exercise, in my case cycling mostly.

I've lost 4 stone overall, 2 stone this year. I weigh what I did 30 years ago

This really irritates me, I like tattoos and I have to save for months / years to get what I want, from the artists I choose and I work full time (as does my wife)... I think it all boils down to the fact that these "parents" choose to spend money on themselves - Tattoos, booze, cigarettes, big screen TVs, etc. rather than their children. How many times have you been in a supermarket and seen the dredge of society dragging their kids around telling them that they can't afford nice, decent food and then 5 minutes later they are in a queue for cigarettes with a bottle of wine and a crate of beers in their trolley.

That's why benefits should be in the form of vouchers rather than sterling.

Exactly !!!

The fat wasters would just sell the vouchers on Ebay, Facebook or similar and use the cash to buy fags, booze and highly nutritious takeaways !
