Good morning Mr Angry between Oval and Stockwell, riding a hybrid with a right hand pannier, wearing yellow knee length socks and natty red and white stripped wooly hat and gloves, I was highly entertained by your false bravado this morning, after telling me to fuck off repeatedly after I pulled you up on the fact that you were undertaking me at speed between a fast moving bus, I then foolishly attempted to engage you in rational coversation at which point you rather threateningly rode up beside and screamed 'Were you talking to me?' When I replied calmly 'Yes I was' a look of confused fear crept across your face, shortly followed by you pedalling away as fast as your little yellow socked legs could carry you. 'Have a lovely day now' I shouted after you..but I don't think you heard me..shame.
Oh and another good morning to the Policelady who pulled me for jumping the Red Light at the Kennington Lane junction, then happily sent me on my way after I explained the fact that it was safer to pre-empt the green at that point because of the layout of the road, and the fact that I had sat at the lights for 2 mins before I moved off, but of course I've broken the law so I'm terribly sorry.
