crazy business coming in this morning - some fella on a silver langster decides at the drop of a hat to let some woman in a polo make a last second left turn across his, and by extention my, path - threw down the anchors and narrowly avoided being bounced over her bonnet. cue much 'wtf are you playing at mate' yelling from me, he pootles off and starts having a go at me over his shoulder, not looking where the fuck he's aiming his bike mind you. hey ho - so we get to the lights at the south lambeth road/vauxhall gyratory intersection and some bell end in a white van starts yelling at us for no reason other than the fact that langster bloke and i are having a bit of a shout at one another. van man is getting all 'you facking cyclists shouldn't be on the facking road you caaahnts!' all the while with what looked like a pre-school kid sat next to him. at this point langster bloke says nonchanlantly: 'excuse me for a second...' and unleashes a stream of abuse at the van bloke that nearly took my eyebrows off. top work mate! anyroads - langster bloke and i saunter up to the ASL - i made a half arsed apology to him, he did the same and we got chatting about bikes and stuff, lights changed, said our 'see you later, be safe mate' and off we went on our merry ways.
