I am always getting asked for directions here and its not as if I look like a German, I don't have a mullet nor a toothbrush moustache! I quite often get hit on by homosexual men, never women though and very often by those care in the community types...

Dunno, one gets periods like that. Few years back I always seemed to be get getting accosted by religious nuts in the street or on the train telling me Jesus loved me. Maybe it was my evil atheist aura.

Threadeds tale reminded me of an incident in Hale Manchester, last winter. It had been raining heavily and there were puddles in the road, so I was wary about getting a soaking.
There was a traffic warden 100m ahead of me, a long line of cars adjusted their speed and swerved, to make sure they all got the bstid. heh heh.

Originally posted by threaded View PostI'm walking along, minding my own business, and just about to cross the road. I see a white van coming, but the road curves sharply away, so I know it's OK to start crossing. Yet it suddenly dawns on me the driver is carrying on towards me, as if to turn into the path I'm on, but I know he can't as there is no road there, it's blocked by a bicycle rank, but I stop all the same. Then I realise he is going to turn, so I jump back to avoid being run down, and driver grinning maniacally at me, i.e. not looking where he is going, crashes into the bicycle rank, crushing several bicycles, and wrecking his van. I take a few steps back and watch his expression change to one of shock. Next, suddenly, he's shouting at me in Polish or something. I get the distinct impression it's supposed to be my fault. I ask you: Why me? I must be a magnet for loons!
