Nah...I thought it was funny as fcuk as well.


They were both in the wrong, simple as that.

The rider suffers from tourettes. He was simply trying to escalate a slight mistake into an end-of-the-world scenario. M'ron. I'm guessing he was upset long before this happened.

Ahhh.. didn't realise you said HP was 312.. thought you were being sarcastic about the CP.

Re: Daylight Robbery

Fwiw if I'd been there, I think I'd have been tempted to nick their (probably stolen) scooter whilst they were occupied.
