This morning, on Battersea Park Road passed a stationary bus in two-lane traffic heading East, some total fucking cock behind me driving a Ford Escort the colour and texture of grade zero emery paper in the lane I'd shifted in to decides to honk his horn. Now past the bus, he drives by me, I shout "Fuck Off!" in full voice, and cycle on. I catch up with him at the traffic lights on Falcoln Rd (where I work anyway), get off, and gesture to him to wind his window down (which he does) and ask him why he honked me.
"You were in the middle of the road."
Silly me.
Says I: "I have as much right to use the road as you do. I was passing the fucking bus. It's bad enough out there on a bike without having a twat like you honking his fucking horn behind me when he has no reason to."
This exasperates him.
"Bastard bikes. Shouldnt be bastard bikes on the road. Bastard. You bastard."
The lights he's been waiting at change. I wave him off with the approved gesture.
"Bastard!" he says as he drives off. "Bastard!"
+1 to the high cunt count today.
